Amir Mirzaei is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics at Western University. His research interests focus on physical vapor deposition (PVD), plasma physics, functional thin films, protective coatings, nanomaterials, high entropy materials, corrosion science, and hydrogen embrittlement. His work aims to develop degradation-resistant films and coatings to withstand harsh environmental process conditions. He utilizes the unique properties of high-entropy materials (HEMs) in advancing the understanding of structure-property relationships through plasma-based PVD techniques. He has contributed to several notable publications that discuss various aspects of photocatalytic degradation, including the effectiveness of ultrathin BiVO4-Au-Cu2O nanosheets and the manipulation of charge carriers at heterojunction interfaces. He has been recognized with awards such as the Fonds de recherche du Québec – Nature et technologies Postdoctoral Scholarship and the Concordia Graduate Student Mobility Award.
