research topic was on condensed matter physics. He has worked as a postdoc at the university of Melbourne, Australia on development of a high energy focused ion beam system. Then he spent another 3 years as a postdoctoral associate at the University of Louisiana
at Lafayette working on the development of high energy focused ion beam. In 2007, Dr. Rout began his appointment as an assistant professor at the University of North Texas, where he is currently doing research in experimental condensed matter physics. More

modifications, and synthesis in a wide range of fields involving semiconductors, photovoltaic, metallurgy, and biomaterials. In this presentation, we will review some of our works on ion irradiation-induced effects in electronics, photovoltaic devices, and
high-entropy alloy materials as well as the development and use of proton microprobe for quantitative elemental micro-analysis of a wide range of elements in electronic and biomaterials.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
