Faculty

Chairman

Dr. Maged Abdelsamie is an Assistant Professor at the Materials Science and Engineering Department of King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals (KFUPM). He received his bachelor's degree in 2010 in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at Suez University, Egypt. He obtained Ph.D. (in 2016) and M.Sc. (in 2011) in the Materials Science & Engineering department at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), Saudi Arabia.  His Ph.D. work has revolved around deploying in situ characterization techniques for probing thin-film formation dynamics for applications in organic thin-film photovoltaics and optoelectronics. Upon obtaining Ph.D., he joined the Toney research group as a postdoctoral researcher at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, Stanford University, where his work was focused on employing X-ray scattering techniques to establish processing-microstructure-property-performance relationships of perovskite and organic materials used for optoelectronic applications. Afterward, he joined the Sutter-Fella Lab in 2020 at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where his work was focused on the synthesis and characterization of lead-free all-inorganic halides and oxides for energy-harvesting, electronic, ferroelectric, and optoelectronic applications and developing control tools for automated synthesis of semiconductor thin films. His work also involved employing machine learning tools in accelerating the development of synthetic strategies for all-inorganic halides and oxides and employing a Robot platform for thin film synthesis.

Research Interests

His research interests at KFUPM are in the fields of water desalination and semiconductor thin films for sensors, hydrogen production, optoelectronics, and solid-state batteries. He is affiliated with the Interdisciplinary Research Center for Intelligent Manufacturing & Robotics where his work is focused on combining robotic synthesis, in-situ characterization, and machine learning to accelerate materials development and discovery.
