Graduate Assistant 01/ 2012-01/ 2013
Missouri State University, Springfield, MO
Designed and optimized a cylindrical sputtering system
Applied experimental observation and theoretical methods of (plasma) glow discharge to establish magnetron mode for the system.
Conducted Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) to isolate any potential failure in the system, their causes, and their impact on disrupting a self-sustaining glow discharge
Performed model analysis with ComSol Multiphysics (Finite Element Analysis), Ansys, MatLab and LabView
Used various coating techniques to grow thin film (semiconductor devices) and devised procedures to test and validate the properties of grown films
Performed X-Ray powder diffraction analysis to characterize the Physical and chemical structure of the material
Conducted instrumental analyses to determine mechanical, electrical, and chemical properties of materials.
Performed experiments with electron microscopes, UV-VIS, Raman Spectrometer, and other equipment to observe materials' structure and properties, energy transformation and propagation, relationships between matter and energy, and other physical phenomena.
