Developing electrolytes using additives in acidic and alkaline media for rechargeable zinc batteries as well as applying different battery tests. Metals morphology control in the electroplating process by mitigating hydrogen evolution and redox potential shift. Coulombic efficiency, cycle stability, temperature effect, and self-discharge improvement are the project achievements.

I did my Master and Ph.D. at the University of Tehran. My graduate work focused on graphene oxide synthesis and its application in the fabrication of electrochemical biosensor for glucose detection. Composites of graphene oxide with polyaniline and manganese dioxide synthesis were other works of mine for fabrication of supercapacitors and amperometric glucose biosensors. I addition, electrochemical study of some aspects of redox biological materials such as dopamine was the peripheral work that I focused on. Moreover, synthesis of graphene quantum dots with blue, green and yellow emission accompanying cellulose nanocrystals was my sidelong studies.
