Biography

Dr. Tohid Nemati is a researcher with a strong interdisciplinary background in physics, materials science, and nanotechnology, specializing in photocatalytic nanomaterials. His academic journey began with a Bachelor’s degree in Applied Physics, where he gained a fundamental understanding of physical principles and their applications in various scientific and engineering fields. His growing interest in atomic interactions and plasma dynamics led him to pursue his first Master’s degree in Atomic and Molecular Physics – Plasma Physics, where he explored advanced concepts in plasma technology and its applications in energy and material processing.
Recognizing the crucial role of materials science in emerging technologies, he decided to expand his expertise by obtaining a second Master’s degree in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Turin. This transition allowed him to bridge the gap between fundamental physics and applied materials research, focusing on the synthesis and characterization of functional materials with tailored properties. During this period, he developed a strong passion for nanomaterials and their potential applications in sustainability and energy conversion.
Currently, Dr. Javadi is pursuing a PhD in Materials Science and Technology at the Polytechnic University of Turin, where his research focuses on nanomaterials for photocatalytic applications. His work, in collaboration with Eni, aims to develop plasmon-enhanced nanomaterials for improving CO2 reduction processes, contributing to cleaner energy solutions and environmental sustainability. His research combines synthesis, advanced characterization techniques, and performance evaluation of novel photocatalysts, with the goal of enhancing their efficiency for real-world applications.
With a strong foundation in both theoretical and experimental research, Dr. Nemati is committed to advancing the field of nanomaterials and contributing to innovative solutions for global energy and environmental challenges.
