Dr. Mohd Zaid is a faculty member in the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, bringing over six years of combined research and industry experience in RF circuit design, semiconductor device physics, and GaN-based MMIC technology. Prior to joining academia, they served as a Principal Engineer at GlobalFoundries (Bengaluru), where they worked on device modeling and circuit design for advanced RF and power technologies, including 130BCD, 55BCD, 8SW, 9SW, and GaN nodes.
Their doctoral work at IIT Kanpur focused on GaN HEMT-based RF circuit design, with coursework and research spanning compact device modelling, charge and heat transfer in semiconductors, flexible electronics, analog and digital circuit design, and MMIC and microwave measurements.
As a trainee researcher at DRDO's Solid State Physics Laboratory (SSPL), they designed and fabricated GaN-based Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA) and Power Amplifiers (PA) MMICs for X-Band, C-Band, and Ku-Band — all with fabricated results in strong coherence with simulation.
