Research Interests
Professor Roqan's research interests include optical, magnetic and structural properties of rare-earth-doped wide-band-gap semiconductors, with an aim to improve the quality of the grown films and their luminescence and ferromagnetic properties. She uses energy-dispersive and wavelength-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, as well as atomic force microscopy to characterize the materials and their surface morphologies.
