Dr. Zishan Husain Khan is currently a Professor and Head of the Department of Applied Sciences and Humanities, Faculty of Engineering and Technology, Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi, India. He obtained his Ph.D. degree from Jamia Millia Islamia, India. He has almost 25 years of research experience in semiconductor physics and nanotechnology. He has published more than 150 research papers in various international reputed journals and guided a number of Ph.D. students. He was a post-doctoral fellow at the Department of Materials Science & Engineering & Centre of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology National Tsing Hua University, Hsinchu, Taiwan from 2001 to 2005. During his postdoctoral research, his work on the fabrication of FET (field effect transistor) using individual (single) carbon nanotube was highly appreciated by the scientific community. His present research interests include hybrid solar cells, OLEDs, transition metals di-chalcogenides, carbonaceous nanomaterials, nano-sensors, and nano-bio sensors.

Dr. Mark James Jackson is the McCune and Middlekauff Endowed Professor and University Faculty Fellow at Kansas State University, USA. He studied a degree in mechanical and manufacturing engineering at Liverpool Polytechnic. After graduating with the Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) degree with distinction, Dr. Jackson subsequently conducted research for his Ph.D. degree at Liverpool Polytechnic in the field of materials engineering focusing primarily on microstructure-property relationships in vitreous bonded abrasive materials. Dr. Jackson was a research fellow at the Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge, working with Professor John Field, O.B.E., F.R.S., and Professor David Tabor, F.R.S., on condensed matter physics and tribology before becoming a lecturer in engineering at the University of Liverpool in 1998. At Liverpool, he attracted a number of research grants concerned with developing innovative manufacturing processes for which he was jointly awarded an Innovative Manufacturing Technology Centre from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council in November 2001. Dr. Jackson was appointed a member of the United Nations Education, Scientific, and Cultural Organization's (UNESCO) International Commission for the Development of the 'Encyclopaedia of Life Support Systems' Theme on 'Nanoscience and Nanotechnologies', and still serves in this capacity. In March 2017, the degree of Doctor of Science (D. Sc.) in mechanical engineering was conferred upon Dr. Jackson in absentia by the congregation for sustained contributions made in the area of mechanical engineering and advanced manufacturing over a period of twenty years. Prof. Numan Abdullah Salah is currently working at the Center of Nanotechnology & Department of Nuclear Engineering, King Abdulaziz University, Saudi Arabia. He obtained his B.Sc. (Physics) from Baghdad University, Iraq, and M.Sc. (Physics) from Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU),New Delhi, and his Ph.D. in Physics at the University of Delhi, India. He had also worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at the Inter-University Accelerator Center (IUAC), New Delhi. His major areas of research interests include nanomaterials and their use in dosimetry, water, and energy applications. He has published/ granted more than 10 US patents. He has published 153 research papers in respected international journals/ conferences.
