Kevin D. Belfield received the B.S. in Chemistry in 1982 from Rochester Institute of
Technology and the Ph.D. in Chemistry from Syracuse University in 1988, where he studied the
kinetics and mechanism of thermal rearrangements of organic molecules. After conducting
research in polymer stabilization and degradation at Ciba-Geigy, he worked in the area of
synthesis and characterization of functionalized polymers at State University of New York
College of Environmental Science and Forestry. He then pursued postdoctoral research in
mechanistic organic chemistry at Harvard University, utilizing photochemical reactions and
determining radical stabilization energies of polyenyl radicals through spectroscopically aided
kinetic studies. He joined the faculty of the Chemistry Department at the University of Detroit
Mercy in 1992, where he received funding from Ford Motor Co. for new materials for
stereolithography and from NSF. He moved to the University of Central Florida’s Department
of Chemistry in 1998 to establish a program in functional polymer chemistry and organic
photonic materials. He was appointed Chair of the Chemistry Department in November 2004,
and holds joint appointments in the College of Optics and Photonics, the Biomolecular Science
Center, and the Department of Mechanical, Materials, and Aerospace Engineering. His research
interests are in the area of multiphoton absorbing materials, two-photon photochemistry, in vivo
and ex vivo two-photon fluorescence bioimaging, magnetic polymeric and sol-gel
nanocomposites, site-specific fluorophore labeling, fluorescent-based sensors and bioimaging
probes, photodynamic therapy agents, nanostructured functional organic and polymeric
materials, and two-photon based 3D high density optical data storage.
