Utilised advanced numerical simulations via Lumerical HEAT to model thermal distribution and heat dissipation within quantum dot downconverter films and Distributed Bragg Reflector (DBR) configurations. These simulations provided critical insights for thermal management, enabling the mitigation of thermal quenching under high-power optical excitation and optimising the integration of high-conductivity sapphire substrates to ensure long-term operational stability.
Developed custom Python scripts implementing the Transfer Matrix Method (TMM) to model the optical electric field distribution and microcavity resonance effects within Top-Emission QLED (TQLED) architectures. By simulating light propagation through multi-layer thin films, the script maps out optical performance across varying top and bottom ITO layer thicknesses to maximize light extraction, optimize cavity length, and precisely position the emission layer at the standing wave's antinode based on the following formula:
Developed a modular Python-based automation framework to execute and manage trading strategies within a virtual demo environment. The system integrates real-time technical indicators to govern automated entry, exit, and risk-management logic.
As a researcher, transitioning into software automation, writing robust, multi-threaded API communication scripts, exception-handling loops, and real-time data parsing from scratch would have presented a steep, time-consuming coding barrier. Utilizing AI as an interactive development partner allowed for rapid prototyping, syntax debugging, and translating trading logic into clean production code in a fraction of the time.
Data Ingestion: Pulling real-time pricing feeds via API.
Indicator Calculation: Processing data through custom functions.
Execution Logic: Evaluating market conditions against pre-defined risk parameters.
Automated Placement: Sending order commands to the virtual demo environment.
Unlike complex scientific models where ground truth can be abstract, software validation is empirical and direct:
Functional Testing: Verified that script outputs precisely matched manual calculations on historical data subsets.
Execution Logs: Monitored console logs to confirm that API requests returned successful status codes and error-handling triggers functioned correctly during connection drops.
Live Demo Verification: Confirmed system reliability by observing automated trade execution, position sizing, and trailing stop placements in real-time within the virtual sandbox environment.
