Research Interest
My research deals with the development of novel materials for applications in catalysis, environmental remediation, sensing, drug delivery, energy storage and biomedical. Synthesis of metal based drug and investigation of their biological activities and inclusive. Of particular interest for these application are coordination polymers, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), quantum dots, carbon dots and their composites prepared via solvothermal and mechanochemical synthetic routes. The characterization of these materials and carried out using spectroscopic, microscopic, and X-ray diffraction analysis techniques.
