Graduate Students

Aisha Okmi obtained her master’s degree in physics-(quantum optics) from king Khalid University, Saudi Arabia, and was a lecturer in the physics department- Jazan University. She is interested in 2D materials, in particular, graphene, aiming at establishing a stable method to transfer graphene without using polymer for surface support. She is also interested in bio- and neuro- applications of graphene.
