In the Fatih University and Gebze Institute of Technology
Fatih University is one of the private universities of Turkey, founded in 1996. I jointed this university in 1997 as a research assistant.
   Fatih University had bought approximately 80 experiments for the undergraduate and graduate education from a German company. However the company brought the experimental equipments and did not give any help more: they gave the experiment manual only. After that we had to share 80 experiments among the assistants and started to set up the experiments and write the experiments manual for the students. After some time we have changed our experiment with the others and improve ourselves up to now. Since 1997 we have given these laboratory lectures to the different student groups in Fatih University.
    During my master and PhD studying, I performed EPR experiments by Bruker EMX model  spectrometer and made data analysis with computational fits on heavy fermion and spinel type crystals under the supervising of Prof. Dr. Bekir AKTAS. Meanwhile I had strong collaborations with chemistry department of my university. I searched the magnetic and physical properties of some paramagnetic ion coordinated phthalocyanines, porphyrazines and methylaniline compounds. Recently I am making experimental and theoretical studies on ferromagnetic ultra-thin films, ferromagnetic Ni nanowires and superparamagnetic nanoparticles.
