Dr. Sadia Ameen obtained Ph.D. in Chemistry from India and then moved to Chonbuk National University, to work with Professor Hyung-Shik Shin on solar cell devices and chemical sensors. Presently she is working as Research Professor at School of Chemical Engineering, Chonbuk National University. She is the recipient of Gold Medal in academics and has a growing list of more than 90 peer-reviewed articles, co-authored patents, contributed to book chapters and authored books. Her research is focused on the synthesis of conducting polymers, nanocomposites, polymer blends, small organic molecules, for the fabrication of bulk heterojunction organic solar cells, perovskite based solar cells, hybrid organic-inorganic solar cells, dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), heterostructure devices and diodes, and chemical sensors.

Synthesis of different materials nanostructures, conjugated polymers, organic, inorganic nanomaterials, small organic molecules, nanocomposites, metal oxide etc by the techniques like plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) techniques, solution techniques, sol-gel techniques, hydrothermal technique, solid state reactions.  Characterizations of nanomaterials by electrical conductivity, photocurrent density, electrochemical impedance, current-voltage measurements, cyclovoltametry, etc  Post-synthesis processing of the nanomaterials, assembly and manipulation of nanomaterials and chemical functionalization of metal oxide nanostructures.  Preparation of thin film nanomaterials using template or non template system by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) techniques, simple dip-coating, screen printing, spin coating, doctor blade method, electrophoretic deposition etc.  Fabrication of opto-electronic devices such as ohmic device, rectifying diodes, heterostructure devices, FETs, organic solar cells, inorganic solar cells, hybrid solar cells, perovskite solar cells, chemical and biosensors, photocatalytic degradation.
