Research Interest
We do Nanophotonics (some special areas in it )
1. Nanomaterial synthesis , optical properties and Ultraviolet sensing
Semiconductor nano structures are one of the highly interesting materials for future electronic, photonic and opto-electronic devices. Preparation and band gap tailoring gains interest due to the potentiality of these materials. Currently, we are preparing doped and un- doped ZnO, Co3O4, MgO nanoparticles and study their optical properties.

3. Nonlinear Optics
Laser interaction with nanostructural materials is important for Photonics and Nanotechnology. Size dependent and host dependent properties of nanosized metal and semiconductor clusters are very interesting. Apart from this Intensity and frequency of exciting laser also plays a crucial in their nonlinear light transmitting property.

4. Fluorescence spectroscopy based Bio Sensors and time resolved fluorescence spectroscopyWe study the photoluminescence sensing of bio molecules using quantum dots. QDs of size 5–20 nm size will be synthesized by hydrothermal method. The prepared QDs exhibit very strong luminescence and these QDs are used to study the FRET and NSET based sensing applications.

6. Optical Properties and Sensing Applications
Photodetectors based on doped and /Au decorated MoS2/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly(4-styrenesulfonate) PEDOT:PSS nanocomposite films (NCFs) were studied (negative and positive) photoresponse under UVC (220–300 nm) and UVA (320–400 nm) UV illumination by varying MoS2 composition.

6. Corrosion and corrosion prevention
We study hidden and accelerated corrosion detection in Aluminium (Al) alloys and steel alloys using ultrasonic and physical methods like XRD and RAMAN . These alloys are widely used marine and aircraft application where corrosion plays a major role in failure of metal. Our main aim is to find hidden and accelerated corrosion and way to idetify the prevention.
