Profile Summary

I am a highly accomplished Research Scientist and Professor with extensive expertise in Microelectronics Engineering and Semiconductor Physics. With over 85 peer-reviewed journal publications, I specialize in the growth, characterization, and theoretical modeling of advanced functional materials for next-generation electronic devices. Core Expertise: Computational Materials Science: Expert in using Density Functional Theory (DFT) and the modified Becke-Johnson (mBJ) potential to predict the electronic, optical, and thermoelectric properties of materials. Semiconductor Growth: Extensive experience in Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) for high-quality thin film and quantum dot growth, specifically focusing on ferromagnetic and topological insulator materials. Functional Materials: Deep specialized knowledge in Perovskites and Anti-perovskites for solar cells and energy harvesting, as well as Spintronics materials including half-metallic ferromagnets and spinels. Energy Storage: Proven track record in developing high-performance electrodes for supercapacitors and sodium-ion batteries using graphene oxide and transition metal sulfides. Professional Impact: My research has significantly contributed to bandgap engineering for optoelectronics and the discovery of lead-free double perovskites for renewable energy applications. I offer high-level consulting services for researchers and industrial clients looking to model new material phases, analyze structural/magnetic stability, and prepare high-impact scientific manuscripts for journals such as Physical Review Letters, Applied Physics Letters, and Solar Energy. Service Offerings: Theoretical modeling and DFT-based material screening. Consulting on thin-film fabrication and characterization (XRD, AFM, Hall Effect). Scientific writing, peer review, and academic project management. Data analysis for thermoelectric and transport properties of nanoscale materials.
