Summary

At the heart of my academic journey, I studied Semiconductor Physics. During my Ph.D. at IIT Bombay, I conducted researched on fabrication of Thin Film Transistors and their modification for Bio-sensor and Neuromorphic applications. During my Masters at IIT-Roorkee, I gained knowledge about semiconductor physics simulation and studied numerical analysis. My master's project was on 2D spin simulation in python programing language. I am confident that my acquired Semiconductor Physics knowledge, programming skills, mathematical expertise will be effectively utilized at your Firm.
