From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gordana Dukovic is a physical chemist. She is currently an associate professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Colorado Boulder.[1]

Life and education[]

Gordana Dukovic earned her B.A. at Rutgers University in 2001, majoring in chemistry and minoring in Italian.[2] In her PhD studies, she did research at Columbia University on the spectroscopy of carbon nanotubes with Louis Brus as her advisor. She was awarded a PhD in chemistry with distinction in 2006 for her thesis entitled "Electronic spectra of carbon nanotubes: excitonic states, chemical doping, and chiral interactions." After her PhD, Dukovic did her postdoctoral research on nanoscience and photochemistry with Paul Alivisatos at the University of California, Berkeley.

In 2009, Dukovic became faculty as an assistant professor of chemistry in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Colorado Boulder, where her research group uses nanoscale synthesis and ultrafast spectroscopy to study fundamental problems in nanoscience and how they impact the application of nanoscale materials to solar energy harvesting.[1][3] In 2016 she was granted tenure to become an associate professor of chemistry.

Her research has been cited over 4400 times.[4]
