BIOGRAPHY

A present post-doctoral research fellow at University of Malaya, department of Physics under plasma technology research center (PTRC). Before this he is an academic senior lecturer at Federal Polytechnic, Mubi of Adamawa State. Wante has PhD degree in Energy Physics with special interest in plasma source, DSSCs and thin films, currently working on extraction of H2 from H2S by non-thermal plasma technology, Comparison of measured and computed neutron yield and thermonuclear component using plasma focus device and he has published articles related to the field of plasma and materials. He also carries experience in research. An inquiring mind with passion for personal and professional development, Wante is looking for a challenging project/position where he can make real contribution to the organization’s success.
