Geoffrey Bodenhausen (born May 7, 1951 in The Hague , Holland ) is a French chemist . His field of work is NMR spectroscopy .

Life

Geoffrey Bodenhausen studied chemistry at the ETH Zurich until his diploma in 1974. In 1977 he received his Ph.D. from Oxford University. PhD with Ray Freeman as his mentor. He then began his research as a postdoc under the direction of Robert and Geriotze Vold at the University of California, San Diego , after which he worked with Leo Neuringer and Robert G. Groffin at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology . In 1980 he moved to the ETH Zurich, where he was part of Richard R. Ernst's group. This was followed in 1985 by a teaching position at the University of Lausanne .

In 1994 he became Professor and Director of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Magnetic Resonance at Florida State University in Tallahassee . Bodenhausen became an elected member of the American Physical Society in 1996 . In the same year he took on a teaching position at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris and at the same time took a part-time position at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Switzerland. He still pursues these two occupations today. From 2005 to 2011 he was also a member of EUROMAR . Bodenhausen is currently a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences and the editorial board of Progress in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy .

Geoffrey Bodenhausen is married and has two daughters.

research

In 1976, Geoffrey Bodenhausen proposed a scheme in the field of spectroscopy to generate selective stimuli of small amounts of a multi-wave spectrum. This scheme was later called DANTE by Morris and Freeman . In 1977 Bodenhausen and Freeman discovered a possibility of indirect detection of the proton resonance frequency between protons and hetero nuclei. In 1980 Bodenhausen and David J. Ruben then presented the HSQC (Heteronuclear Single Quantum Coherence), which is a two-dimensional method. Bodenhausen and Eich then worked together to enable homonuclear coherence transmission. In 1984 Bodenhausen was finally able to publish - together with Herbert Kogler and Richard R. Ernst - an article in the Journal of Magnetic Resonance , in which they described how the selection of specific coherence transfers takes place in NMR. In 1987, Richard R. Ernst and Alexander Wokaun published a publication on the principles of NMR in one and two dimensions.
