Current Research Interests

q Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

            q Structure studies of disordered materials

            q Materials for Energy Applications

            q Metallurgy
q Computational Methods

My main research interests lie in the field of Materials Engineering/Metallurgy with the focus on Nanostructure materials (Gold nanoparticles) and Metallic Glass Materials (BMG’s).

 I got my PhD in ''the Structure and Properties of Some Advanced Materials'' with the focus on the relationship between structure and physical properties of these materials , using a variety of experimental techniques that includes Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) , Neutron Diffraction , X-ray Diffraction and X-ray Reflectometry with some advanced Computational methods. My Masters research is in area of Laser spectroscopy Analysis.  My interests included Nanoscience and Materials Research, Nanotechnology, Metallurgy, Computational Methods, Renewable Energy and Future.
