Advances in Energy Materials

Dr. Shadia J. Ikhmayies had received her B.Sc. in Physics, M.Sc. in Molecular Physics and Ph.D. in the field of CdS/CdTe thin film solar cells from the University of Jordan in 1983, 1987 and 2002, respectively. Her research focuses on producing and characterizing semiconductor thin films and thin film CdS/CdTe solar cells. Dr. Ikhmayies is also involved in characterizing quartz in Jordan for the extraction of silicon for solar cells and characterizing different materials using computation. She has published 55 papers in international scientific journals, three book chapters and 79 research papers in conference proceedings. She is the founder and editor of the ebook series Advances in Material Research and Technology, the editor-in-chief of the book Advances in Silicon Solar Cells, and the book Advances in II-VI Compounds Suitable for Solar Cell Applications. Shadia is a member of The Minerals, Metals &Materials Society (TMS), where she serves as organizer of several symposiums and editor of several Proceedings, and a member of the World Renewable Energy Network (WREN). She is a member of the international organizing committee and the international scientific committee of the European Conference on Renewable Energy Systems (ECRES2015- ECRES2020), and a member of the editorial board of the International Journal of Materials and Chemistry, Journal of Energy Systems, Recent Patents on Materials Science, and the Journal of Amasya University the Institute of Sciences and Technology. She served as technical advisor/subject editor for several JOM issues from 2014 - 2021, and as a guest editor for four special issues of the Journal of Electronic Materials: European Conference on Renewable Energy Systems (2015, - 2018). Shadia is a reviewer for 24 international journals, and she was the chair of the TMS Materials Characterization Committee (2016-2017).
