Dmitri Kilin Dmitri Kilin is an assistant professor of computational chemistry at USD (University of South Dakota). Dr. Kilin has over ten years’ experience in modeling of excited state dynamics in photoactive nanomaterials, including interfacial charge transfer and reaction dynamics and surface reactions at catalytic sites and interfaces of metal and semiconductor nanomaterials for photovoltaic and photocatalytic solar energy conversion. Dr. Kilin has published over 50 peer-reviewed publications in the area of electron dynamics. Recently, he has organized and co-organized several symposia at the American Chemical Society national meetings and the Pacifichem Congress. Dmitri Kilin completed his undergraduate (1994) and masters degrees (1996) in Physics from Belarus State University (Minsk, Belarus) and received a doctoral degree from the Chemnitz University of Technology (Chemnitz, Germany) in 2000. After subsequent postdoctoral internships at research groups of Prof. Jeff Cina at the University of Oregon, Prof. Oleg Prezhdo at the University of Washington, and Prof. David Micha at the University of Florida, he joined the Department of Chemistry at the University of South Dakota as faculty. His current research interests are focused on modeling the photo-induced dynamic processes of charge transfer, nonradiative charge carrier relaxation, and surface reactions at catalytic sites and interfaces of metal and semiconductor nanomaterials for photovoltaic and photocatalytic solar energy conversion.
