Givi Kadagishvili

Givi Kadagishvili is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Chemistry and works with Prof. Zahra Fakhraai. His research focuses on two-dimensional materials, particularly MXenes – investigating their optical, structural, and electronic property evolution under thermal and electrochemical conditions using in-situ spectroscopic ellipsometry and atomic force microscopy to develop tunable, high-performance materials for sustainable energy applications. Givi graduated from San Diego State University with a B.Sc. in Chemistry in 2023.
