About me
About me
Majharul M. Islam is a graduate researcher at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, working in the MSCAD Lab| UA Power Group under the supervision of Professor Alan Mantooth. His research focuses on semiconductor device modeling and CMOS process development, with a specialized emphasis on wide-bandgap materials like Silicon Carbide (SiC) and GaN.
Currently, he leads Process Design Kit (PDK) development for the Multi-User Silicon Carbide Research Facility (MUSiC), ensuring technology readiness and robust validation for compact models. His technical expertise spans the full device modeling lifecycle, including test structure design, characterization, parameter extraction, and benchmarking. He actively develops and customizes advanced models—such as BSIM4, PSP, BSIM4SiC, and authored the original AlScN-based ferroelectric capacitors—with a specific focus on integrating memory designs for extreme, high-temperature environments.
Alongside his core physical modeling work, Majharul is advancing the next generation of semiconductor engineering by developing AI/ML-enabled Modeling approaches. He builds AI/ML parameter optimizers, AI agents, and automated scripting frameworks to streamline device simulation, model customization, and physical design verification.
He is a former faculty member in the EEE department at Sonargaon University in Dhaka, Bangladesh. He also served as an Assistant General Manager for the Bangladesh Rural Electrification Board (BREB), the country's largest state-owned electricity distributor. He holds a B.Sc. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST). and a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (MSEE) from the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville
Majharul is a RISE HEASRST FOUNDATION Fellow at the University of Arkansas and an active IEEE member. He previously earned a prestigious government exchange fellowship(BHTPA-FRI) to research at the Fujitsu Research Institute in Japan. Throughout his career, he has been deeply involved in his community, holding numerous leadership roles—including Vice President and Convener—across various academic, volunteer, and extracurricular organizations.
