Dr. Reza Faraji | Electrical Engineering | Best Researcher Award

PhD Candidate | University of Science and Culture | Iran

Dr. Reza Faraji is a dedicated PhD candidate in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Islamic Azad University (IAU), with a collaborative affiliation with the University of Science and Culture (USC). His primary area of research is nanoelectronics, with a specialization in Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) and reversible computing. He earned his Master’s degree in QCA design from USC, where his thesis focused on designing low-power, high-performance digital circuits. Reza’s academic foundation is reinforced by research assistant roles and engagement in advanced nano-circuit projects. His ongoing research includes the design of a Multilayer Reversible ALU (RALU) using Fredkin and HN gates optimized for 6G-enabled IoT systems, and device modeling of AlN/β- and ε-Ga₂O₃ Tri-Gate MOSHEMTs using DFT and TCAD simulations for mm-Wave applications on diamond substrates. These projects aim to advance low-power and high-efficiency architectures for next-generation communication and computation systems. He actively collaborates with Dr. Abdalhossein Rezai (USC) on QCA-based circuit design and with Dr. Amir Amini (IAU, West Tehran Branch) on nanoscale device modeling. Although he has no patents or books published yet, his work shows promise for industrial applications in IoT and semiconductor sectors. Currently, Reza has 5 published documents, 18 citations and an h-index of 3, reflecting the growing impact of his research in the scientific community. His key areas of expertise include QCA, reversible logic, ALU design, nanoscale HEMTs, and energy-efficient digital architectures for 6G and future nanoelectronic systems.
