Biography
Dr. Stephen M. Kuebler received the D.Phil. degree in chemistry from the University of Oxford and the B.S. degree in chemistry and B.A. in German from Tulane University. Dr. Kuebler joined the faculties of CREOL and the Department of Chemistry in August 2003. His research interests include materials and processes for 3D nano- and microfabrication, use of these techniques for creating nanophotonic structures, nonlinear optical materials, photochemistry, and biological sensing.
