Student evaluation in Physical Chemistry: "She is one of the very few who deserves the title of TEACHER: Tell me - I'll forget. Show me - I'll remember. Involve me I'll understand. From this class, I have learned". "She has made learning a better environment. Her techniques are effective and enlightening. She provides tremendous challenges to all students".

• Funded research:

  National Science Foundation, Research Corporation, IBM and William M. Keck Foundation. Quote from NSF referee: "Prof. Acrivos is one of the recognized leaders in the field of intercalation chemistry with an international reputation and an established track record. She effectively employs a number of experimental techniques and theoretical techniques in selective collaboration with other experts to elucidate the physical and chemical properties of a number of novel intercalated layer solids". The bar graph shows the vital statistics of those mentored, HS: high school students, BS: bachelor of science, MS: master of science, Ph.D: doctoral students and HST: high school teachers. Their names and list of joint publications are given below.

• Research Activity In Solid State Chemistry:

  Pioneering work has been done since 1951 in the study of condensed matter. As a professional in X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), magnetic resonance (ESR and NMR), X-ray diffraction, electron diffraction, of organic and cuprate superconductors - low dimensional solids, metal ammonia systems and, and as a graduate student semiquinones and impurity states in Mg0. The interpretation of these results has led to a better understanding of the metal to insulator transitions using the Mott-Anderson theory. A wide variety of spectroscopic tools have been used, e.g., optical transmission spectra of single crystals, X-ray diffraction, magnetic resonance and X-ray edge absorption using Synchrotron Radiation. The present work is dedicated to the study of low dimensional solids by ESR and XAS. Optical transitions with a high photon flux laser probe the properties of excited states in ESR, pioneered in 1985 influence the transition to superconductivity in organic solids. The latter include organic metal-superconductors and derivatives of superconducting perovskites YBa2Cu307. Most undergraduate research students have gone on to get professional degrees; many are in academia and have generated more professionals.

• Publications:

  The research work has led to the publication of ~100 articles in American, British, German, Scandinavian and French Scientific Journals, and a book since 1955.
