I’m an Assistant Professor at the Electrical Engineering Department at Kuwait University. My research is in nanotechnology, primarily focused on Theory and Modeling charge transport in nanoscale devices. My interests include atomistic modeling of nanoscale devices and materials, Modeling quantum electron transport in DNA and biomolecules, Molecular electronics, and device physics. To study the electrical properties of nanoscale devices, I use quantum mechanical methods such as density functional theory and apply Green’s function formalism to calculate charge transport properties.

My approach utilizies:

  • Atomistic Modeling: Structure optimization and density functional theory (DFT) calculations using software like Gaussian, SIESTA, VASP, and AMBER.
  • Coding: writing codes and developing algorithms to calculate charge transport properties of nanoscale devices, using MATLAB or Python.
  • 3D Vizualisation: to view atomic structures and devices, VMD or GaussView
