Dr. Ruhul Amin – Solid-State Chemist and Materials Scientist

Dr. Ruhul Amin is a Solid-State Chemist and Materials Scientist specializing in advanced energy storage and conversion technologies. His research interests span both the fundamental understanding of electrochemical mechanisms and the translation of this knowledge into commercially viable applications.

His research portfolio is structured around two strategic directions:

1. Portable and Long-Duration Energy Storage Systems – including conventional lithium-ion, sodium-ion, and next-generation all-solid-state batteries.
2. Energy Conversion Systems – including solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs).

Currently, Dr. Amin’s work emphasizes the development of advanced electrolyte and electrode materials, interfacial engineering strategies, and optimization of transport properties to enable high-performance batteries capable of operating under extreme environmental conditions.
