Rate My Professor Ahasan Ahamed

Ahasan Ahamed is a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of California, Davis. He completed his doctoral studies in electrical and computer engineering from the University of California, Davis in 2025. He earned his M.S. degree from UC Davis in Electrical and Computer Engineering and his B.S. degree in 2018 from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) in Electrical and Electronic Engineering.

His research centers on silicon photonics, optoelectronic sensors, reconstructive spectrometers using silicon photodiodes, hyperspectral imaging, hardware security, integrated sensing, computational imaging, and photonic true random number generators. He has served as first author on peer-reviewed publications, including the 2026 paper “AI-augmented photon-trapping spectrometer-on-a-chip on silicon” published in Advanced Photonics. Ahasan Ahamed has contributed to projects on quenching circuits for ultrafast single-photon avalanche diodes, lens-less imaging, and color image sensors while working in the research group led by Professor M. Saif Islam.
