Ahmad Hamdan

Prof. Ahmad Hamdan is an Associate Professor at the Université de Montréal's Department of Physics, Faculty of Arts and Science. He specializes in atmospheric pressure plasma interactions with liquids, focusing on nanomaterial synthesis and liquid processing. His research explores plasma-liquid interfaces (contact, immersion, and multiphase systems) and applications in water sterilization, nanomaterials, and clean fuels. He leads multiple grants, including a CRSNG Discovery Grant and a NOVA Québec program. He supervises graduate students and teaches courses on plasma physics and cold plasma physicochemistry.

• Education: PhD (2013, University of Lorraine), MSc (2010, University of Nancy), BSc (2008, Lebanese University).
• Active on research groups like the Plasma Physics Group.
• Projects include plasma-based nanoparticle synthesis, liquid processing, and X-ray imaging of discharges.

Research interests span plasma dynamics, nanoparticle fabrication, and environmental applications. His work bridges fundamental plasma physics with industrial challenges like water treatment and material science.

Publications emphasize experimental and computational studies of plasma-liquid interactions, with over 50 peer-reviewed papers since 2013. Current grants include funding from CRSNG, FRQNT, and MITACS for projects like plasma-based water treatment for urban agriculture.
