  • Development and Fabrication of Molecular materials for optical, conducting, Non-linear optical and biological application (for anticancer activity)
  • Design, Synthesis, Characterization and Fabrication of novel Polymer templates/ Polymer blends for conducting and semiconducting applications.
  • Investigation on the Structure-property correlation 
  • Investigation of Nano structures and tuning morphology for the miniatures
  • Purification/separation of impurities through fine tuning and control experiments by HPLC method.
  • Design and synthesis of solid-state recognition agents
  • To generate Supramolecular assemblies for optical and non-linear optical molecular materials by the optimization of non-covalent interactions/organization of molecular dipoles through crystallization.
  • Design and synthesize molecular probes as metal sensors.

      Future Research Interests are to:

  •  Design and synthesize molecular fluorescent probes as efficient sensors and for bioimaging. 
  •  Synthesize considerable/extended pi-conjugated systems for solid state optical responses/solid state sensors.
  • Design and synthesize simple and small biologically active molecules for anticancer activity. 
  • Design and development of organic semiconductors with resistive switching memory characteristic and solar cell application.
