Haddou El Ghazi is a distinguished physicist who earned his French aggregation in physics sciences in 1997. In 2008, he received his doctorate with high distinction from Mohamed Ben Abdellah University, collaborating with Sherbrook University on the Experiment Tool. He joined the mechanical engineering department at ENSAM, Hassan 2 University, in 2016. Currently, he leads the Materials, Innovative Processes, and Energy Systems research group at ENSAM Laboratory, where his work focuses on low-dimensional III-nitride semiconductors for solar cells and LASER biomedical applications. He teaches at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, advising MSc and PhD students across different universities. Additionally, he serves as an editorial board member and reviewer for international journals in the field of bulk and nanomaterials, collaborating with national and international research teams to develop optoelectronic devices based on theoretical simulation models.
Dr. Walid Belaid earned, from the University of Sidi Mohamed Ben Abdellah, a BS in Materials Physics (2015) and a PhD in Physics (2022). He is now a Research Fellow in the School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at the University of Leeds. His work in computational nanophotonics and Group-IV optoelectronics has produced 30 peer-reviewed publications and numerous conference presentations and specialist workshops; professional service as a guest editor and reviewer, together with membership in international scientific societies; and recognition through leadership of the Horizon-Europe LASTSTEP programme and a Turkish BAP PI grant.
