I am Assoc. Prof. Sevda Sarıtaş, an academic in the field of Physics, currently serving at Atatürk University, İspir Hamza Polat Vocational School, Department of Electricity and Energy. My research primarily focuses on thin film materials, electronic structures, and their electrical, optical, and magnetic properties, with a particular interest in metal oxide nanostructures for gas sensing applications.

I hold a PhD in Physics from Atatürk University (2017), with prior postgraduate and undergraduate studies in Physics at Van Yüzüncü Yıl University. I have been actively involved in teaching and supervising at undergraduate, postgraduate, and associate degree levels, covering courses such as microelectronics fabrication, renewable energy systems, analog and digital electronics, medical devices, and electrical circuits.

My work encompasses experimental and theoretical investigations into material properties, particularly doped metal oxides, and their applications in gas sensors, photodetectors, and radiation safety materials. I have contributed extensively to peer-reviewed journals indexed in SCI, SSCI, and AHCI, and presented at numerous international conferences.

I am also involved in academic administration, including serving as Head of Department (2020–2024) and as a member of evaluation and academic committees. I actively collaborate in international research projects and maintain profiles in ORCID, Scopus, Publons/Web of Science, and ScholarID.

Dr. Sevda Sarıtaş has an extensive publication record in nanostructured metal oxides and thin films, focusing on their structural, optical, magnetic, and electronic properties. Her research spans gas sensor development, photodetector applications, and energy-related materials. She has authored over 50 papers in SCI-Expanded journals, including studies on Sn-doped and Zn-doped α-Fe₂O₃ thin films, MgO thin films prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis, and NiCr₂O₄ and CuO-based metal oxides for sensing applications. Additionally, Dr. Sarıtaş has contributed to book chapters and review articles, presented at numerous international conferences, and actively participated in academic committees and thesis evaluations, bridging fundamental science with applied materials research.
