Welcome to Dr. Afzal’s personal website. Dr. Afzal’s research is focused on the design and synthesis of materials with desired functionality and properties and the development of smart devices (tools) to tackle problems related to the environment, health, and industry. Read more about his research and publications here.
New article entitled “β-Ga2O3 nanowires and thin films for metal oxide semiconductor gas sensors: Sensing mechanisms and performance enhancement strategies” is published in Journal of Materiomics. It presents a comprehensive study of the gas sensing mechanisms, properties, and applications of nanostructured β-Ga2O3-based semiconductor gas sensors. Read it here. Dr. Afzal dedicates this article to the memory of his doctoral thesis examiner – Dr. Claus-Dieter Kohl (1945–2017) – Professor of Physics at Justus-Liebig-Universität Gieβen, Editor of the book entitled “Gas Sensing Fundamentals” (Springer-Verlag, 2014), and a brilliant scientist to work in the field of gas sensors. Rest in peace, Prof. C.-D. Kohl. Read More …
