BiographyShehrin Sayed is currently a postdoctoral researcher in EECS, UC Berkeley and in Materials Science Division, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. He received Ph.D in 2018 and M.Sc. in 2013, from department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Purdue University. He received B.Sc. in 2011, from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology, Dhaka, Bangladesh.
His Ph.D. dissertation developed a semiclassical theory for diverse classes of spintronics materials, that lead to predictions of several new phenomena, some of which were later demonstrated experimentally up to room temperature. His dissertation established practical relevance of these new phenomena, especially for non-volatile memory applications. Several SPICE models presented in this website were developed and benchmarked as a part of his Ph.D work. His Ph.D dissertation received the 2018 Dimitris N. Chorafas Foundation award, characterized by its high potential for practical application and by the significance attached to its aftermath.
His research goal is to address the bottlenecks of existing memory technologies, which are severely limiting the emerging data driven applications. His current research includes voltage controlled non-volatile memory, transport modeling in nano-scale devices, quantum transport phenomena in Kitaev spin liquids, oxide spin-orbitronics, etc.
