Research
The research programs centered on both fundamental and application aspects has always been a passion and aspiration for us. We have been undertaking research on interdisciplinary field of research in materials science that would have a strong direct impact to the scientific society as well as the common man. Our research motivation includes the comprehensive experiments on the synthesis of precise nanostructures materials and investigation of their properties coupled with theoretical simulations. The first-principles calculations support the interpretation of the experimental observations. our major research contributions pertain to the area of nanomaterials and its frontiers that includes Synthesis of metal/ metal oxides/sulphides/phosphides materials, carbon based materials (graphene, carbon quantum dots); Study on electrochemical sensing/biosensing; Electrochemical energy conversion and storage applications; Photo-electrochemistry; Electrochemical splitting of water to clean energy; Electrochemical Conversion of carbon dioxide and nitrogen to valuable product; Supercapacitors/Metal air batteries; Electrochemical Coatings on metal substrates.
