Michael Kasha
Michael Kasha (December 6, 1920 - June 12, 2013) was an American physical chemist and molecular spectroscopist who was one of the original founders of the (Institute of Molecular Biophysics ) at Florida State University (FSU).〔(Renowned FSU scientist Michael Kasha dies at 92 ), tallahassee.com, Jun. 13, 2013〕 Born in Elizabeth, NJ to a family of Ukrainian immigrants, he earned his Ph.D. in chemistry from University of California at Berkeley in 1945, working with renowned physical chemist G.N. Lewis.
He was a Distinguished University Research Professor at FSU. He was an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences (in 1971)〔(Kasha NAS Membership )〕 and the American Academy of Arts & Sciences (in 1963),〔(AAAS Membership List )〕 as well as the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science.
The research in his molecular spectroscopy laboratory has maintained a strong tradition of the discovery and elucidation of excitation mechanisms, with particular application to photochemical and biophysical problems. His most important achievements include identifying triplet states as source of phosphorescence emission, formulating the Kasha rule on fluorescence, and his work on singlet molecular oxygen.
Kasha is also known for his interest in improving the sound quality and durability of the acoustic guitar and the classic string instruments. His guitar design is patented 〔(Kasha Guitar Patent )〕 and is known as "Kasha guitar". A 30-year collaboration with luthier Richard Schneider led to a series of innovative changes to the traditional classical guitar.〔(kasha bracing design )〕
