Applied research relevant to 21st century issues was on stage as College of Arts & Sciences faculty were recognized at Ohio University’s 2019 newsmakers gala. Members of the Ohio University community gathered Oct. 3 to celebrate the hundreds of OHIO faculty who promote the research, expertise and overall excellence of […]

Dr. Alexander Govorov, Distinguished Professor of Physics & Astronomy, recently published two papers, including one on “Understanding Hot-Electron Generation and Plasmon Relaxation in Metal Nanocrystals: Quantum and Classical Mechanisms.” Govorov is also a member of the Nanoscale & Quantum Phenomena Institute at Ohio University. Authors: Besteiro, LV; Kong, XT; Wang, […]

  Direct observation of ultra-fast energetic (hot) electrons created by light photons in plasmonic nanodevices has been a nearly impossible task until now. A research team led by Dr. Alexander Govorov, Distinguished Professor of Physics & Astronomy at Ohio University, published a paper on “The fast and the furious: Ultrafast […]

The Ohio University Board of Trustees approved the following 24 College of Arts & Sciences faculty members for faculty fellowship leaves. Each year Ohio University provides faculty with the opportunity to request leave from their campus responsibilities to concentrate on their research and scholarly activity. Emilia Alonso-Sameno, Modern Languages, spring—Collaborative […]

Dr. Alexander Govorov, Distinguished Professor of Physics & Astronomy at Ohio University, was part of a team written about in a Science Daily story headlined “Physicists devise method to reveal how light affects materials: The new method adds to the understanding of the fundamental laws governing the interaction of electrons and […]

Dr. Alexander Govorov, Distinguished Professor of Physics & Astronomy at Ohio University, was quoted in a Materials Today story headlined “Ceramic nanoparticles turn light around.” Nanomaterials whose optical properties change in response to a magnetic field could have a central role in spintronics, magnetooptics, magnetochemisty, and chiral catalysis. But, until […]
