Having completed my B.Sc. in Materials and Metallurgical Engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), I earned M.Sc. in Glass and Ceramic Engineering with specialization in synthesis and basic characterization techniques of nanomaterials. Intending to keep pace with the data growth, I have commenced my research quest to find a class of quantum materials which can revolutionize next generation ultra-fast technologies with low power, cheap and efficient nano-electronics. I have strong interest to do research in any of the following areas: Nano-electronics Device and Materials, Neuromorphic Devices and Materials, Micro and Nano-fabrication of novel device architectures, Electronic transport in Strongly Correlated Materials.

I have co-authored 4 peer reviewed journals and 1 Elsevier book chapter. In my M.Sc. research, I investigated dilute magnetic semiconductor properties in heavily Sm doped TiO₂. Dilute Magnetic Semiconductors (DMS) is one of the most promising candidates for spintronics device which can bring a paradigm shift in technologies by integrated in logic devices, spin polarized light emitting diodes, non – volatile memory storages, spin field effect transistors etc. Through my research, I gathered experiences in nano-materials synthesis and analysis of their structural, morphology, optical and magnetic properties by XRD, TEM, SAED, UV-Vis spectroscopy and VSM characterization techniques. I've also experience in thin film fabrication by using spin coating (TiO₂ and CeO₂) and thermal evaporation (ZnSe) techniques. Besides, I have genuine interest in programming and computational research. I was a regular member of BUET ACM-ICPC Programming Teams during 2012-2014 while I participated and won several national and international titles for my Alma-mater including 19th Position (9th as ICPC Ranklist) in ACM-ICPC Semifinal in 2014.

Currently I'm working as Research Associate at BUET and looking for PhD research opportunities in the above mentioned research areas.
