Work History

Postdoctoral researcher

University of Arkansas
04.2024 - Current
  • Working on graphene-based 2D material and semiconductor junction-based quantum devices and HEMT.

Postdoctoral researcher

Arizona State University
12.2022 - 03.2024
  • Worked on integrating the LED and Photodetectors based on InGaN/GaN Quantum Well heterostructure for application in Nano Biosensing.

Assistant Professor in Electronics and Communication Engineering

BIET Hyderabad
04.2022 - 12.2022

Senior researcher

IIT Jodhpur
02.2022 - 03.2022
  • Worked on 2-dimensional wide band semiconductors films and heterojunction of Ga2O3/In2O3 through Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) for application in deep-ultraviolet photo-detectors.

Junior Research Fellow (JRF)

IIIT Allahabad
07.2015 - 07.2016
  • Worked on the government-sponsored project on “Topological insulators materials and its devices applications: Majorana Fermions in topological”. I have coordinated the setup of the Spintronics and the Metamaterials Laboratory and worked on topological insulator films and their semiconducting applications.

M.tech Trainee

CSIR-National Physical Laboratory
01.2014 - 06.2016
  • Worked on bulk and the Quasi-2-Dimensional film growth process by the techniques of Physical vapor deposition and chemical vapor deposition. Learned about the material characterization techniques and the analysis of the various results by XRD, SEM-EDS, TEM, and AFM. I have worked there on the thermoelectric material (Bi2Te3) bulk growth and thin films. I have tried the method of doping by antimony (Sb) in order to increase the conductivity to optimize the thermoelectric parameters as well as the figure of merit.
