LAWRENCE M. EPSTEIN started his career as a chemical engineer, then earned his M.S. in 1952 and Ph.D. in 1955 from Polytechnic University in the field of physical chemistry. He did research in the fields of radiation chemistry and in Mossbauer effect spectroscopy at Westinghouse Research Laboratories, and then served as Associate Professor and supervisor of the General Chemistry program at the University of Pittsburgh until he retired in 1986. 

Y. L. Sandler Westinghouse Research Laboratories)-. In view of the magnitude of the optical gap in ZnO ( 3 e.v.), it seems very unlikely that illumination by means of an incandescent lamp as used in Professor Schwab s experiments (Lecture 24) would cause any appreciable electronic excitation from the valance band to the conduction band in a pure ZuO crystal. It seems more likely that the electrons come from impurity levels due to the presence of water. We have recently demonstrated that the reduction of silver ions in aqueous solution can be photocatalyzed in presence of pure Ti02 or Si02 by light of wavelengths not absorbed by these oxides when in a dry state.
