Zakya Kafafi

Zakya H. Ismail (amụrụ n'afọ 1948) bụ onye sayensị Ijipt bụ prọfesọ nke Injinia Eletrik na Mahadum Lehigh . Nnyocha ya na-atụle ngwá electronic na photonics. Ọ bụ nwanyị mbụ a họpụtara ka ọ bụrụ onye nduzi National Science Foundation nke Division of Materials Research.

 Mbido ndụ na agụmakwụkwọ 
A mụrụ Kafafi na Cairo, Egypt. Ọ malitere inwe mmasị na kemịstrị mgbe ọ nọ na sekọndrị, ebe onye nkuzi sayensị ya na-akpọ ya “The Chemist” n’oge niile. Ọ bidoro ọmụmụ ya na kemịstrị na Mahadum Houston, ebe o gụkwara mgbakọ na mwepụ dịka minor. Mgbe e mesịrị, ọ gara Mahadum Rice maka ọmụmụ masta na Ph.D. ya na kemịstrị, na-arụ ọrụ n’ebe nyocha banyere spectroscopy okpomọkụ dị ala. N’ebe ahụ, ọ bụrụ ezigbo enyi Marilyn E. Jacox. Mgbe o mezuru Ph.D., Kafafi laghachiri Cairo, ebe e nyere ya ọrụ dị ka Assistant Professor.

 Nnyocha na ọrụ 
N'afọ 1986, mgbe ọ nọ na ezumike, Kafafi gara United States, ebe ọ mụtara banyere ọrụ nke meghere na ngalaba sayensị anya na United States Naval Research Laboratory (NRL).  Kafafi mechara sonye na NRL, ebe o guzobere ngalaba organic optoelectronics.  N'ebe a, ọ rụrụ ọrụ na ihe ndị na-adịghị n'usoro na lasers na-acha anụnụ anụnụ. Ọ gbanwere site na kemịkalụ gaa na sayensị ihe ma mesịa banye na physics, na-amụ ihe onwunwe nke OLEDs. Kafafi nọrọ ihe karịrị afọ iri abụọ na-arụ ọrụ na NRL, n'oge ahụ OLED gosipụtara ụzọ ha na telivishọn na ekwentị mkpanaaka.

N'afọ 2007, a họpụtara Kafafi ka ọ bụrụ onye nduzi National Science Foundation nke Division of Materials Research, n'oge ahụ ọ na-elekọta mmefu ego ijeri dollar. Ọ bụ nwanyị mbụ nwere ọnọdụ dị otú ahụ.   N'afọ 2010, Kafafi laghachiri Ijipt, ebe ọ chọrọ ịzụlite mmekọrịta nke na-akwalite ike anyanwụ gafee mba ahụ.

Kafafi sonyeere ngalaba na Mahadum Lehigh n'afọ 2008, ebe e mere ya Distinguished Research Fellow na Ngalaba Injinia Eletrik. N'ebe a, o mepụtara ihe owuwu plasmonic metallic nke nwere ike ịbawanye ịmịkọrọ ìhè na arụmọrụ nke photovoltaics. Nanostructures ndị a na-eme ka o kwe omume ịbawanye optical absorption nke photovoltaics na-arụ ọrụ n'emeghị ka ọ dịkwuo arọ, na-enye ohere maka ịrụ ọrụ ngwaọrụ ka mma n'emebeghị mgbanwe ma ọ bụ ịdị arọ.

Site na 2011 ruo 2016 Kafafi jere ozi dị ka onye isi nchịkọta akụkọ nke Journal of Photonics for Energy . N'afọ 2014, Kafafi ghọrọ onye nchịkọta akụkọ mbụ nke akwụkwọ akụkọ Science Advances .
