Nanoplasmonics Research Lab

Prospective Group Members

Training

In the Nanoplasmonics Research Lab, researchers receive training in nanofabrication, optics and spectroscopy, microfabrication and advanced theoretical methods in photonics and plasmonics. The lab is well equipped with laser and spectroscopy facilities, with convenient access to nanofabrication and characterization tools on campus. Dr Gordon collaborates extensively with professors in Chemistry, Physics (SFU and UBC), and Mechanical Engineering, as well as collaborators in other parts of Canada (see for example the Biopsys Network ), the US (Lawrence Berkeley Labs) and Spain (ICFO). Our group is recognized internationally for contributions plasmonics; see for example, our invited publications or this link .

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Victoria, Victoria, BC

The University of Victoria is among the strongest universities in Canada: it consistently places either 1 or 2 in the annual Macleans rankings for comprehensive universities. Recently, it placed at 130 in the world on the Times Higher Education Supplement.

Victoria is the capital of British Columbia, located on the beautiful Vancouver Island, and it has the mildest winter in Canada and with less than half the annual rainfall of nearby Vancouver.

Funding Opportunities

Students are encouraged to apply directly to the faculty of graduate studies if interested in working in my group. Typically a few positions are available each year.

Students admitted to my group with their own funding will typically receive generous top-up funding, when allowed by their other funding sources. Contact Dr. Gordon for more information or apply directly to Graduate Admissions at the University of Victoria. To ensure that I see your application, please list Dr. Gordon as your proposed supervisor.
