Her graduate research work was on laser spectroscopy of organic molecular solids and synthesis and magnetic relaxation properties of organic conducting polymers. Dr. Morrobel-Sosa also conducted post-doctoral research on photo-induced magnetic properties of organic superconductors at San Jose State University before joining the Chemistry faculty at The University of Alabama in 1985. While at the University of Alabama, her research interests focused on the study of high-temperature superconductivity. Dr. Morrobel-Sosa returned to California in 1990, and as Professor of Materials Engineering at Cal Poly she continued research efforts focused on the study of defects in semiconductors and superconductors through muon resonance spectroscopy at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
