Mehdi Adelifard obtained his Ph.D. in solid state physics from Shahrood University of technology on
Septemer 2012, based on ”An investigation on physical properties of thin films and
nanostructures in chalcogenide compound semiconductors”. Here, he was involved in the
characterization of CuS, CuS-ZnS (CZS) binary and Cu2SnS3 (CTS) ternary semiconductors by means
of XRD, FESEM, UV.Vis-NIR spectrophotometer, Hall effect setup and solar cell analyzer.
Mehdi Adelifard has authored or co-authored over 20 publications in national and international journals
or conference proceedings.
