Biography:

Farhad A. Boroumand received a Bachelor in Electronics (B.E.) degree in electronics from the Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Iran, in 1988, the M.Tech. Degree from the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, New Delhi, India, in 1992, and the Ph.D. degree in integrated electronics from King’s College London, U.K., in 2000, focusing on interactions between isolated GaAs-based MESFET’s. In 2000 and 2006, he worked on four post-doctoral research projects at Sheffield University and Surrey University, U.K., concerning nano and organic electronics and photonic devices. He is currently an Assistant Professor with the K. N. Toosi University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, teaching courses such as nanotechnology, organic electronics, semiconductor devices, and modern physics. He has published over 90 journal and conference papers.
