Our Group is motivated to develop low cost, large scale, and facile materials for clean energy, electronics & electrochemical devices. At present, the group works on synthesis of functional nanomaterials and thin films of metal oxides, metals, alloys & 2D materials (graphene and mxenes). The group is interested to understand the fundamental properties of nanoscale materials and effect of interfacial properties on electrochemical devices.
