Lora Ramunno, <\/strong>Professor and group leader uOttawa Uniweb<\/a> Google Scholar<\/a> Research Gate<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Prof. Ramunno obtained her Ph.D. in physics from the University of Toronto in 2002. After a year in a high-tech start-up, she returned to academia as a postdoctoral fellow at uOttawa. Since 2007, she has been a faculty member in Physics at uOttawa where she is currently Full Professor. She was the recipient of a New Frontiers in Research Fund Exploration Grant in 2020, held a Canada Research Chair in Computational Nanophotonics from 2007-2017, and received an Early Researcher Award in 2007. Her theoretical\/computational research focuses on nonlinear and nano-optics, including intense laser-matter interaction, nanophotonics,  nonlinear optical microscopy and photonic devices. She also has several successful industrial collaborative projects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prof. Ramunno is a fellow of the Max-Planck-UOttawa Centre for Extreme and Quantum Photonics, a fellow of the NRC-UOttawa Joint Centre for Extreme Photonics, and a member of the Nexus for Quantum Technologies Institute. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Masoud Navrood, <\/strong>Postdoctoral Fellow (2021-) <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Masoud received his Ph.D. in physics from Western\nMichigan University in 2019. After a year working as a research scientist, he\njoined as a postdoctoral fellow to Prof. Berini and Prof. Ramunno groups.\nDuring his Ph.D. research, he focused on theoretical study of localized surface\nplasmons in metallic nanoparticles and clusters, including but not limited to\nLSPR sensitivity and ultrafast electron-phonon dynamics in thiolate-protected\nplasmonic gold clusters. His current work involves numerical modeling of electrodynamics\non high-performance computers for plasmonic and meta-surface applications, such\nas designing and modeling plasmonic meta-surfaces for beam steering, and\ngraphene-based hybrid plasmonic modulators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joshua earned his BSc in Physics\/Mathematics from the University of Ottawa in 2017 and started his MSc in the same year. He transferred to his PhD in 2019. His work has involved plasmonic colouring with ultrafast lasers, simulations of laser heating, and computational nanophotonics. His current work focuses on nanophotonic inverse design, nonlinear plasmonics, high harmonic generation, epsilon-near-zero materials, and deep Learning for nanophotonics. He currently holds an NSERC Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarship (2020 – 2023). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
