About the author
Shadia J. Ikhmayies had received the B.Sc. and M.Sc. from the physics department at the University
of Jordan in 1983 and 1987, respectively, and the Ph.D. in producing Cd S/Cd Te
thin-film photovoltaic solar cells from the same department and the same
university in 2002. She worked as a member of the academic staff in several universities in Jordan. Her research is focused on producing and characterizing
semiconductor thin films and thin-film Cd S/Cd Te solar cells. Besides, she works
in characterizing different materials by computation.
