Sabbir Hasan Munna

Personal Profile Statement

I am a Physics postgraduate researcher specialized in computational materials science and experimental condensed matter physics. My research includes synthesis and characterization of functional materials and first-principles Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations to explore their structural, electronic, magnetic and spin-dependent properties. My expertise includes solid-state synthesis, advanced materials characterization, and scientific computing using Python for data analysis and materials modeling. My recent research on transition-metal-doped two-dimensional materials and altermagnetic systems has further stimulated my interest in electronic structure theory, quantum materials and computational methods for functional materials. I am looking for a PhD position that could combine first-principles simulations and experimental collaboration to further understand and design next-generation materials.

• Synthesized Ni-Zn, Lanthanum-doped Mn-Zn, and Yttrium-doped Mg-Zn ferrites using solid-state reaction and chemical routes.
• Characterized structural (XRD), morphological (SEM), magnetic (VSM), thermal (DTA), and dielectric (EIS) properties.
• Investigated doping-induced changes in electronic band structure, magnetic domain behavior, and dielectric relaxation.
• Developed custom Python pipelines for automated processing, Peak Fitting, and visualization of XRD & VSM spectrum datasets.
• Utilized Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Special Quasirandom Structure (SQS) calculations to model disordered spin configurations and predict electronic properties.
