OverviewAI-generated summary

Bothina Hamad's research focuses on the theoretical investigation of materials properties using first-principles calculations. Her work examines the electronic, magnetic, and thermoelectric characteristics of various alloy systems, including Heusler alloys and chalcogenides. Recent publications explore quaternary Heusler alloys based on Zr, V, Ti, and Rh, with substitutions like Al, Ga, In, Si, Ge, and Sn, to understand their potential for spintronic and thermoelectric applications. Hamad also investigates the impact of finite-temperature and anharmonic lattice dynamics on the thermal conductivity of materials such as ZrS$_{2}$ and InTe monolayers. Her research further extends to the electronic, dynamical, and thermoelectric properties of Cd$_{1-x}$Zn$_{x}$O alloys and the electronic, magnetic, and optical properties of ferrimagnetic Heusler alloys like Zr$_{2}$VX (X=Al, Ga, In). Hamad has a h-index of 19, with 131 publications and 1,198 citations. She collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including M. O. Manasreh and Eesha Andharia.
