I have promises to keep...

Hey there! Welcome to my website!

Can I interest you in some of my activities? If so, please have a look around to learn more about me. Feel free to contact me in case you have further queries!

Hello! I'm Moinul!

I am a passionate researcher in the field of Optics and Photonics, with a strong interest in areas such as nonlinear fiber optics, fiber lasers, ultra-fast photonics, optical computing, silicon photonics, and optical sensing. I recently completed my M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering at McGill University (2025), where my research focused on developing mid-infrared (MIR) optical fiber-based components. I hold a B.Sc. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) from the Islamic University of Technology (IUT), Dhaka, Bangladesh (2021).
