1-WORK EXPERIENCE

Teaching:
From September 2003 to February 2006 - Science Department, Shiraz University
I was working at Shiraz University as a lab teacher for about two years. I have the experience of teaching, General Chemistry, Physical Chemistry 1&2, and Thermodynamic for five semesters.

2-I have the experience of programming in Linux, FORTRAN, Visual Basic, QBasic environments.

I have been working on a project, as a part of a team, during my thesis, pertains to the Shiraz’s petro-chemical industry. In this project we tried to find the mechanism of some metallic specious and ionic liquids which are being used in industrial projects and experimental laboratories using Molecular Dynamics Simulations. I am well versed in Windows XP, Microsoft Office, Linux and other commonly used programs and programming on different computer environments.

3- PUBLICATIONS:

1) Ab initio Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Ionic Liquids.
M. H. Ghatee and Y. Ansari
J. Chem. Phys. 126, 154502 (2007) (5-pages)
This paper has become 9th between top 20 research articles with the most full-text downloads during the month April, in descending order
2)Experimental electrical double layer and ab initio molecular dynamic study of alkyl association in imidazolium based ionic liquids.
M. H. Ghatee and Y. Ansari
Theoretical and experimental studies have been performed to investigate the micro-scale structure and electrochemical properties of some imidazolium based ionic liquids. We study 1-alkyl 3-methyl imidazolium salts of chloride, iodide, hexafluorophosphate, and tetrafluoroborate. In particular the structure of the bulk 1-butyl 3-methyl imidazolium iodide ([bmim]I) using Car Parrinello Molecular Dynamics Simulation in liquid phase is studied to unravel the dynamics of the associative cluster formation.
