About me

I was born in 1996 in Tabriz, and I graduated from Tabriz University in 2021. My thesis is "Synthesis and optical characterization of one-dimensional photonic crystals with InAs quantum dot defect layer". During my master's studies, I have more than three years of professional work experience which includes Photonic Crystal, Synthesis Quantum Dots, Thin Films growth, and Nanofabrication. In the field of characterization and analysis of the laboratory work, I used Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-Visible-NIR spectroscopy, MATLAB, and Origin.  

In 2017, I graduated from Bonab University in East Azerbaijan with a four-year degree in optic-laser engineering. Also, I completed my internship at East Azerbaijan Telecommunication Company and my bachelor's project was "Design and manufacture of a cleanroom sensor to announce environmental conditions by SMS". I work in the field of electronics, for example, and manufacturing a mini CNC & Spin-coater device. 

In addition to laboratory and industrial activities, I teach in the field of optical and quantum communication.
