Description of Research
Fundamental research in the field of materials chemistry plays a critical role in the discovery and application of new and better performing materials. This is achieved in three steps i) synthesis of novel materials with better properties, ii) study their structural, physical, and chemical characteristics, and 3) investigation of their potential applications. Our research program has strong emphasis on synthesis of new inorganic materials, determination of their crystal structure, and study of their physical and chemical properties. The design of new materials from specific modules is the unifying theme between the main two research projects in our laboratory.
