Biography

RESEARCH INTERESTS:

CURRENT FOCUS:

Anna Swan is an associate Professor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Boston University. She received a Masters degree in physics engineering from Chalmers University, Gothenburg, Sweden, and a Ph.D. degree in physics from Boston University, Boston, MA. Swan received two student awards, the Nottingham Prize, and the Morton M. Traum Award for her dissertation on spin-ordering on NiO(100) surfaces using metastable He* scattering.

She joined the Solid State Division, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN, as a Wigner Fellow. In 1999, she joined the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, Boston University, as a Research Assistant Professor. Her research topics are clustered around high spatial resolution spectroscopy. Her active topics are spectral self interference as a means of improving fluorescence microscopy resolution, resonant Raman studies of single carbon nanotubes, and very sensitive and high spatial resolution stress-measurements in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) using micro-Raman spectroscopy.
