Our research is multidisciplinary in nature. We are broadly involved in the synthesis and applications of nanoscale materials. We use our knowledge of chemistry to synthesize newer materials and then use these materials in various applications in biology, catalysis and optics.

​

We specifically work in the following areas:

​

• Metal nanoparticle synthesis and applications in sensing and catalysis

​

• Biomolecule-nanoparticle interactions

​

• Carbon nanomaterials for sensing and bioimaging

​

• Silicon- metal nanoparticle hybrids for energy applications

​

• Supramolecular metal-organic gels for environmental and biological applications

​

• Coordination polymer particles
