Olivia joined Dr. Mazumder’s group in Fall 2017. Olivia’s thesis research focuses on field evaporation of nitride-based semiconductor materials. Her work relies on atomic-level chemistry of material structures, which is obtained through atom probe tomography (APT). Olivia recently worked as a summer intern researcher at Idaho National Laboratory (July – Oct. 2020). Previously, Olivia received her bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Engineering (SUNY Buffalo) and her master’s degree in Materials Design and Innovation (SUNY Buffalo).

Jith joined Dr. Mazumder’s group in Fall 2018. His current research is focusing on understanding the atomic scale structural chemistry of wide bandgap oxides and nitrides semiconductor films and heterostructures using atom probe tomography. Jith recently worked as an intern researcher at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (Feb. – Jul. 2020). Previously, he received his master’s degree in February 2020 from the Dept. of Materials Design and Innovation (SUNY Buffalo). He obtained his bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering in June 2015 from the Dept. of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Khulna University of Engineering and Technology, Bangladesh.

 

Prachi Garg, MS

PhD Candidate and Graduate Research Assistant,

Prachi joined Dr. Mazumder’s group in Fall 2019. Her research focuses on zirconia-based and glass ceramic material systems. She obtained her second master’s degree from the Department of Materials Design and Innovation (SUNY Buffalo) for her work on atomistic modelling of yttria-stabilized zirconia. Prachi has incorporated machine learning to optimize material processing conditions and is currently working to incorporate molecular dynamics for simulation of the material system. Previously, Prachi obtained her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Medical Biotechnology (India, 2017).
