    About Me:

    I’m a PhD researcher studying how to create tiny materials that are invisible to the naked eye but can change the way surfaces behave. By using special techniques, I grow these materials one layer at a time to develop cool structures that can send information using laser light. This work is at the cutting edge of science, combining light and electronics to revolutionize communication technology!

  • Arman Azizi

    About Me:

    I am a researcher in the field of Electrical Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, and Mathematics.

    I’m really into math because it’s like a big puzzle waiting to be solved. Math isn’t just about numbers and formulas; it’s actually a way of understanding the world around us. Think about how we use math for everything from building skyscrapers to figuring out how fast a car is moving or even understanding the patterns in nature! For me, solving math problems is like going on a little adventure. You start with a question, use a bit of creativity, and then, with some logic, you find the answer.
