PhD Students
Qurat ul Ain
PhD Student (Physics)
Qurat Ul Ain is a PhD student in the Physics department. She joined FMOD in September 2018. Her research work is on the fabrication and characterization study of the Dye sensitized and Perovskite solar cells. She is currently working on the preparation of Dye sensitized solar cells with two different (hydrophobic and hydrophilic) dyes. Her main idea proposed for the current project is the study the effect of the dyes on the gel electrolyte that is hydrophilic in nature. In near future, her work will be focused on fabrication and study the perovskite solar cell using gel electrolytes as hole transport materials.
