DFT Materials Modeling Expert | Scientific Writer | Plasma Physics Researcher | Data Analysis & Simulation Specialist

Profile Summary

I am Salih Nawaz, a researcher with an MPhil in Physics from Kohat University of Science and Technology (KUST), specializing in plasma physics and quantum magnetoplasma instabilities. My thesis focused on Parametric Instabilities and Decay Modes in Spin-Polarized Quantum Magnetoplasma, where I developed analytical models to explore nonlinear plasma interactions. Beyond theoretical work, I have experience in computational plasma physics, particularly Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulations using FBPIC and Smilei, with an emphasis on laser-plasma interactions and wakefield acceleration. I also actively work in computational materials science, using Density Functional Theory (DFT/CASTEP) for studies on electronic, optical, and thermodynamic properties of doped semiconductors and advanced materials. My broader research interests include: Plasma instabilities, laser-plasma interaction, and wakefield acceleration Fusion plasma theory and magnetohydrodynamics Computational materials design and thermoelectric/optical property calculations I am deeply motivated to contribute to plasma physics and advanced materials research through collaborative projects, innovative simulations, and interdisciplinary approaches.
