I have worked as a Research Assistant in LCF project entitled as Plasma Nanoscience-based Transition Metal Dichalcogenides Nanostructured Electrode Materials for Energy Storage Applications, funded by Higher Education Commission (HEC), Pakistan and World Bank. In this project, we synthesize the hybrid TMDs via plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) for energy storage devices like supercapacitors, batteries and cells.<\/p>\n
We evaluate and optimize the electrochemical performance of TMDs nanostructured electrode materials for batteries and supercapacitors configuration with an aim to achieve highest possible electrochemical capacitance, cyclic stability, energy density, charging and discharging capacities and energy density. I am graduate in BS Physics (04 years bachelor\u2019s degree) from one of the public sector universities, Government College Women University (GCWU) Faisalabad \u2013 Pakistan. I have completed MPhil in Physics from University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan. In this masters, I have worked on the \u201cSynthesis and Characterization of Ni-Cu-Zn based Nanofluids\u201d.<\/p>\n

This research is carried out both with\u00a0in-house<\/em>\u00a0experiments at the Spin-ARPES laboratory at IMDEA Nanociencia and in the some of the\u00a0outstanding ARPES beamlines in Synchrotron Radiation facilities<\/strong>\u00a0as Alba (Barcelona), Elettra (Trieste, Italy), Soleil (Paris) or Bessy (Berlin). Our investigations are complemented with the study of magnetic properties by X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), structural characterization (collaboration with STM groups at IMDEA) and electronic structure calculations in collaboration with different theory groups.<\/p>\n What power does science have to transform the world?<\/strong><\/p>\n Scientific knowledge allows us to develop new technologies, solve practical problems, and make informed decisions, both individually and collectively. Because its products are so useful, the process of science is intertwined with those applications: New scientific knowledge may lead to new applications.<\/p>\n Where do you find inspiration?<\/strong><\/p>\n Scientific investigations may be inspired by many different factors. The early stages of an investigation often involve making observations, asking questions, sharing ideas and data, and learning what’s already been discovered about the topic.<\/p>\n Where do you see yourself in the future?<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cAs a recent graduate in physics and having two Master\u2019s degrees in the field of Condensed Matter and Nanophysics and General Physics\u2019\u2019, respectively: I am now just embarking on my professional career. I have a very clear vision and in the next five years, I envision a path of continuous personal and professional growth in the field of Nanophysics. I am passionate about this research and I see myself honing these skills to become an expert in my research field.<\/p>\n Why IMDEA Nanociencia?<\/strong><\/p>\n I want to do research here because I’ve heard great things about the research culture and the supportive work environment. I believe that working in a positive and collaborative atmosphere will allow me to perform at my best and contribute meaningfully to the team. Pursuing this doctoral research at IMDEA Nanociencia aligns with my personal goals and aspirations. It provides me with the necessary tools and knowledge to achieve my long-term objectives, whether they involve making a difference in my community, advancing in my career, or pursuing further academic and research endeavors.<\/p>\n I’m drawn to this position because of the opportunity for growth and advancement. I’m eager to learn new skills and take on new challenges, and I see this project as a perfect fit for my career goals.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n More information on the IDEAL Fellowships Programme\u00a0<\/p>\n The IDEAL Fellowships Programme is supported by the\u00a0Marie Sk\u0142odowska-Curie Actions<\/strong>\u00a0(MSCA) COFUND.\u00a0Grant agreement ID: 101034431.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
