Biography

Inshad Jum’h is currently a faculty member in the physics department at German Jordanian University in Jordan. She received her Ph.D. in Nanoscience from the physics department at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany 2011. She had many scientific collaborations and participated in many national and international scientific and educational projects. Dr. Inshad published more than 30 peer-reviewed scholarly articles in high-impact journals as well as conference proceedings. She was an invited speaker at several international conferences and presented her research at several national and international meetings.

Her research interest focuses on investigating the structure and morphology at the nanoscale of different nanostructured materials for environmental application. As well as, electronic bulk and interface properties of organic, inorganic, and biological materials using various Scanning Probe Microscopy techniques (SPM), such as, STM, AFM, EFM. Moreover, she is working in various techniques for nanoparticles production and characterization, such as, X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning Electron microscopy (SEM), and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). Research activities also include developing Boron-Doped-Diamond (BDD) electrodes for wastewater treatment, water splitting, and other essential applications in oxygen demand regime in the field of electro-physical chemistry.

Educational Background

Ph.D., Physics–Nanomaterials, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany, 2011.
Master, Physics, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Jordan, 2005.
Bachelor, Physics, Yarmouk University, Jordan, 1996.
Research Interests

My research aims at preparing and characterizing functional nanostructured materials for advanced applications. I focus on investigating the structure and morphology at the nanoscale of different nanostructured materials for environmental application. My scientific research has resulted in the publication of 30 papers in reputable international journals. In view of these research activities, I was awarded five scientific and educational projects funded by national and international agencies. I took a leading role in these projects (in the field of nanomaterials for environmental application 2013-2021), ensured the effective management of these projects (set goals, scientific results, and ensuring budgets and performance targets). I have excellent experience on electronic bulk and interface properties of organic, inorganic, and biological materials using various Scanning Probe Microscopy techniques (SPM), such as STM, AFM, EFM. Moreover, I am working in various techniques for nanoparticles production and characterization, such as X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning Electron microscopy (SEM), and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). My research activities also include developing Boron-Doped-Diamond (BDD) electrodes for wastewater treatment, water splitting, and other essential applications in oxygen demand regime in the field of electro-physical chemistry as well as studying the adsorption and photocatalytic properties of nanomaterials for the removal of contaminants from wastewater.
