Educational Background

  • MS Physics International Islamic University Islamabad, Pakistan
  • BS Physics (Nanotechnology) International Islamic University Islamabad, Pakistan

Research Interests

Topics: Nanomaterials (0D, 1D, 2D), Nanocomposites, Electrochemical energy storage, Li ion batteries, Supercapacitors.

Why 2D materials: 2D materials having high surface area are promising candidates for the enhancement of performance of energy storage devices such as batteries and supercapacitors. Integration of 2D materials with 0D particles can be proven crucial for the energy storage devices. So, building and analyzing the heterostructures involving 2D materials is a topic of great interest.
