Research Experience
| Research Interests : | Functional nanomaterials, Polymers, Plasmonics, metal-oxide semiconductors, Chemistry of Materials, Ion beam modifications of nanomaterials, Chemistry of Materials, Energy and environmental applications | |
| Brief Research Statement : | Research experience of more than 6 years at various National and International organizations such as IIT Kanpur, INRS-EMT Montreal Canada, Aix Marseille University France, Universite Libre De Brussels (ULB) Belgium, University of the Free State (UFS) South Africa etc. Recent advances on the improved technological performances and fundamental understanding by coupling different nanostructured materials have encouraged the scientific community toward exploring the potential offered by noble metals and their nanocomposites with various functional nanomaterials in variety of fields. Noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in dielectric matrix (such as polymer, graphene, metal-oxide materials) can provide synergistically high-performance novel multifunctional materials that find applications in modern nano-biotechnology. My current research interests are primarily focused on the development of unique, high performance nanostructured composite materials (0-3 dimensional) as multifunctional nanomaterials for optical and molecular sensing applications via SERS nanotechnology. Other applications are photocatalysis, antibacterial activities and solar cell device applications. In general, my research activities include synthesis, characterization, and study of various physio-chemical properties of noble metal based nanocomposites for multifunctional applications. Specifically: Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology ------ Nanocomposites for optical, SERS, bio-sensing, antibacterial studies.. Light emitting diodes ------ composites of polymer and rare earth metal doped metal oxide materials. Solar Cell Applications ------- Application of different nanomaterials and perovskite for solar cell applications. Combining the above themes, the aim is to bridge nanomaterials science for interdisciplinary research including clean energy. |
