I
am a Professor of Physics employed in the Department of Physics & Astronomy
at the University of Western Ontario. My principal research field is in the quantum
theory of condensed matter systems.
Within this field, my current research projects focus on surface
physics, nanomaterials science, and nonlinear
processes in solids. The applications are mainly to the magnetic, optical, and
electronic properties of materials on the nanometre
scale. Further information is given in the section on 'Research Interests'.
My previous appointments at Western include
being the Chair of the Department of Physics & Astronomy, the Director of Western
University's Institute for Nanomaterials Science
(WINS), and the Associate Dean (for Research) in the Faculty of Science.
