I am a Ph.D. candidate in Chemical Engineering at Michigan Technological University, focusing on sensor technology and sustainable process systems. My research centers on the development of biosensors—specifically electronic nose systems—for disease diagnosis and industrial gas detection. My work emphasizes the functionalization of interdigitated electrodes with metal oxide semiconductor materials, integrating principles of surface chemistry, catalysis, and materials science. This enables me to address the complete sensor design process, from material synthesis and surface engineering to device integration and application testing.
Research Interests
Chemical sensor development using metal oxide semiconductor materials. Aspects of this research interest include: • Electronic nose systems for gas detection (industrial and biomedical) • non-invasive diagnostics • Surface chemistry, sensor selectivity, and catalysis • Semiconductor microfabrication and device integration • Sustainable process engineering and pollution prevention • Renewable energy technologies
