As a faculty researcher in engineering and applied physics, my passion lies in unraveling the complexities of materials through defect characterization using positrons and lifetime spectroscopy. My doctoral research focused on Topological Insulators, where I successfully demonstrated the existence of a positron surface state using Positron Annihilation induced Auger Electron Spectroscopy (PAES). This was a first-of-its-kind measurement, opening new avenues for understanding these novel materials. My master’s work involved measuring the low energy tail in a spectrum down to 0 eV using APECS at Brookhaven National Lab.
Currently, I’m engaged in exciting projects. One, funded by UGC-DAE CSR, utilizes Positron lifetime spectroscopy to investigate inter-granular corrosion. The other, a BIRAC project, aims to develop an innovative ultrasonic dental scaler tip using laser surface texturing and ceramic coatings. These projects allow me to combine my research interests with practical applications.
Teaching is another core aspect of my professional life. During my previous tenures, I teach physics to undergraduate students and have introduced new global elective courses like Thin Film Nano-Device Fabrication Technology and Introduction to Astrophysics. I strive to create a student-centric learning environment and mentor students in research projects. My dedication to teaching has been recognized through publications and participation in faculty development programs. I’m committed to fostering a new generation of scientists and engineers equipped with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
I am an Assistant Professor at RV University, dedicated to fostering academic excellence and inspiring students to explore innovative solutions in the field of technology.
