WELCOME

 

Welcome to the webpage of Innovative Materials & Physics for Advanced Convergent Technologies (IMPACT) Lab: At the IMPACT Lab, we delve into the fascinating world of Innovative Materials and Physics to pioneer Advanced Convergent Technologies for next-generation energy, sensing, and computing solutions. Our research is fundamentally driven by a deep understanding of condensed matter physics, with a strong emphasis on exploring and engineering novel material properties.

 I extensively collaborate with science and engineering department faculty members in our Institute towards developing applications in the domains of Energy (with Dr. R. Raj, Mechanical Engineering and Dr. R. K. Bag, Civil Engineering), Environment (Dr. S. K. Samanta, Chemical and Biochemical Engineering), Cell manipulation using Micro-Robotics (Dr. Atul Thakur, Mechanical Engineering) and Functional Materials (Dr. T. Rajagopala Rao, Chemistry, Dr. S. J. Ray, Physics and Dr. A. K. Mukherjee, Physics). International collaborations include Dr. K. Hirata and Dr. S. Ooi (NIMS, Japan). This webpage contains an overview of my research and teaching activities. [CV]
