Biography

Welcome to my ORCID profile! I'm Rana Saad, a materials science researcher with a passion for developing innovative solutions to environmental and energy challenges. Specifically, I focus on the properties and behavior of nanomaterials and thin film synthesis using various techniques such as spray pyrolysis, SILAR, hydrothermal, electrodeposition, spin coating, and CVD. My research leverages the power of Origin software to analyze research data from Raman spectroscopy, SEM analysis, atomic force microscopy, XRD analysis, TEM image analysis, EDX, Raman microscopy, and FTIR-Raman.

I'm particularly excited about the potential of interdisciplinary research to drive progress in materials science. My unique contributions to the field include the development of novel methodologies for synthesizing advanced materials and the use of advanced data analysis techniques to gain insights into their properties and behaviors. By leveraging these tools, I've been able to make significant contributions to the field and drive progress in the areas of energy and environmental sustainability.

I'm always looking for new opportunities to collaborate with other researchers and drive progress in the field. If you're interested in learning more about my work or discussing potential collaborations, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you for visiting my profile, and I look forward to connecting with you.
