A Passionate Physicist with Research experience in nanomaterials and strong interest in semiconductor industries

Introduction

A Physics PhD graduate with expertise in nanoscience and nanotechnology, specializing in soft magnetic nanocomposite thin films. My research focuses on thin film fabrication, process optimization, and characterization of thin films to understand structure-property relationships in advanced materials

Research Projects

Soft Magnetic Nanocomposite Thin Films

Developed Fe_Fe₃O₄ core-shell nanocomposite thin films using physical vapor deposition (PVD), focusing on optimizing deposition parameters to improve magnetic, electrical, and structural properties

Oblique Angle Deposition

Investigated the structure-property relationship of the soft magnetic nanocomposite films assembled by iron/iron oxide cluster impact at different voltages and at different oblique angles (15, 30, 60, 90)

Experience

I have research experience from my PhD at the University of Idaho, where I worked on developing and characterizing nanocomposite thin films. In addition, I have industry experience as a Process Engineer at Intel, where I gained hands-on experience in process engineering and working in a high-tech manufacturing environment
