Agartala: Dr. Farhana Yasmin Rahman earned a German patent for her work on sustainable electronic memory devices. The former Tripura University doctoral researcher developed the tech using plant extracts like rose, lotus, and sajna. She conducted her studies at the Thinfilms Nanoscience Laboratory under Prof. Syed Arshad Hussain. The devices offer a low-cost, green alternative to standard silicon.
This is a big deal. The achievement highlights the output of the university lab. Rahman is moving on to new challenges. She secured a postdoctoral fellowship at the National Institute for Materials Science in Japan. She will join the Ionic Device Group to build transistor-based neuromorphic devices. These machines mimic the human brain to boost future computing power.
Tripura University officials credited the success to the department. They stated, "Dr. Rahman's achievements reflect the growing international impact of its research ecosystem and underscore the contributions of the Thinfilms Nanoscience Laboratory under the leadership of Prof. Syed Arshad Hussain in advancing materials science and sustainable electronics."
