Doctoral student, Uppsala University Sweden |
Syed Hassan M. Jafri earned his bachelor degree in electrical engineering from the University of Engineering and Technology Lahore, Pakistan in 2001. In 2002 He joined the University College of Engineering and Technology, Mirpur, Azad Kashmir as a Lecturer. In 2006, he completed his master’s degree in microelectronics from the Asian Institute of Technology, Bangkok, Thailand, funded by Higher Education Commission, Pakistan. Upon his return to Mirpur, he was promoted as Assistant Professor.
In 2007, he was awarded scholarship for PhD studies by University of Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan. In December 2007, he started his PhD at the Division of Electron Microscopy and Nanoengineering (ELMIN), Department of Engineering Science, Uppsala University under the supervision of Prof. Klaus Leifer. The main focus of his research is conduction properties of nanomaterials. He is working on modification of conduction properties of graphene\carbon nanosheets, measurements of conduction properties of molecules and semiconductor nanoparticles. For electrical measurements, the ELMIN group uses high end source meters of Keithley and Agilent on manual four-probe station. In addition to that TEM, FIB\SEM\EDS, SEM, AFM, ESEM and LOM are regularly employed for structural analysis.
ELMIN is located in the Ångström Laboratory, one of Europe’s most advanced laboratories for materials science. An important part of it is Angstrom Microstructure Laboratory (MSL), the largest university clean-room in the Nordic countries, with state-of-the-art equipment, know-how, education and continuous user support.
