Biography
Khalil A. Ziq is a Full Professor in the Department of Physics, College of Engineering and Physics, and Interdisciplinary Research Center for Advanced Materials, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. Prof. Ziq obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Illinois–Chicago under the supervision of the late Prof. J. Kouvel in 1989. From 1997 to 1998, Dr. Ziq spent a sabbatical year at Ames Lab and Iowa State University, working with Prof. D. K. Finnemore and the Paul Canfield group. His research interest is in magnetic and superconducting materials. Recent research is on critical behavior in Van der Waals ferromagnetic materials, Magnetocaloric materials, and thermodynamic scaling in Fe-based superconductors.
