Hamdy F. M. Mohamed
I received several awards, including the Best Researcher award from Minia University, in the years from 2013 to 2023. He published more than 100 publications. He is a member of many national and international associations and has reviewed many international publications in many journals. I am studying polymer electrolyte membranes for fuel cells as bulk and thin films using many techniques such as positron annihilation lifetime, slow positron beam, single and coincidence Doppler broadened of annihilation radiation, WAXD, XPS, proton conductivity, contact angle, FTIR, and so on. I am also studying the layer double hydroxide (LDH) for water purification and using the LDH waste as catalysts for fuel cell applications. He is a professional in experimental nuclear physics (coincidence spectrometers, Gamma, Beta, and Alpha Spectrometers).
