I received my Ph. D. degree from the Electrical and Electronics
Engineering
Department of Middle East Technical University in 1997. During my
doctoral
studies I was involved in computational many-body physics of two- and
three-dimensional
electron liquids. As a post-doctoral researcher I have been at
University
of California, Santa Barbara (US) working on the excitons in wide band
gap semiconductors. Moving to University of Essex (UK) for another
post-doc
position, I worked on full-band electron transport phenomena in wide
band
gap semiconductors. I enjoy computational condensed matter physics, and
engage myself in moderate amount of coding (mainly in F95).
Currently, our theory group is working on the silicon and germanium nanocrystals;
we explore their linear and nonlinear optical properties as well as carrier dynamics and atomistic structural properties.
