Chemical engineer · GSTU, Bangladesh
I synthesize sustainable nanocomposites in the lab and predict new materials with DFT, working toward the point where the two inform each other.
B.Sc. in Applied Chemistry and Chemical Engineering from GSTU, first in a cohort of 31. Now teaching part-time in the department and researching under Dr. Md. Kamruzzaman.

ABO3 perovskite
The ideal cubic cell: B cations sit in corner-sharing O6 octahedra and A cations fill the cavities between them. It is the parent of the orthorhombic NdCuO3 I model with DFT in VASP.
