Research Assistant
• Performed Mössbauer Spectroscopy experiments for magnetic, non-magnetic and superconducting systems.
• Experienced in analyzing data using statistics based computer models.
• Expert in local probe methods to study how the microscopic properties of a material such as crystal and electronic structures are related to its macroscopic properties.
• Used the hyperfine structure changes to get information on local atomic arrangements, chemical state, magnetic state, electron-density variations, and lattice dynamics.
• Calculated, with in the Local Density Molecular cluster approach, the hyperfine field and electric field gradient on Cd probe atoms at 3d-transition-metal surfaces.
• Contributed to original changes to the computer-code to enhance its performance.
• Performed calculations on different bulk-like clusters of Fe and FeF2. Directed and supervised graduate and undergraduate students in research projects.
