Zahid Hussain passes his viva!
Congratulations to PGR Zahid Hussain, who has passed his viva. His thesis was titled ‘Metal-organic Framework (MOFs) Derived Nanocomposites: Synthesis and Applications in Photocatalysis’. During his time with the CDT, Zahid published 11 papers, plus an English-to-Urdu translation of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics by Carlo Rovelli. Zahid now works as a postdoctoral researcher at Technical University […]
New Publication: An in situ investigation of the thermal decomposition of metal-organic framework NH2-MIL-125 (Ti)
Congratulations to Zahid Hussain for his new paper, ‘An in situ investigation of the thermal decomposition of metal-organic framework NH2-MIL-125 (Ti)’ , recently published in Microporous and Mesoporous Materials. Zahid explains the paper’s findings: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are exceptionally porous and highly crystalline coordination polymers. Since the late 1990s, MOFs have been intensively investigated for a large variety […]
Porous ZnO/Carbon nanocomposites derived from metal-organic frameworks for highly efficient photocatalytic applications – A correlational study
Congratulations to XM² PGR student (third year) Mian Zahid Hussain for his latest publication on “Porous ZnO/Carbon nanocomposites derived from metal-organic frameworks for highly efficient photocatalytic applications – A correlational study” in Carbon journal. Abstract below. Abstract Porous ZnO/C nanocomposites derived from 3 different Zinc based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) including MOF-5, MOF-74 and ZIF-8, were […]
