Over the years I have done a great deal of inorganic chemistry that has been extensively applied for research and development in Nano-chemistry via synthetic chemistry and materials chemistry which is supported by a large number of international publications. I have designed  programme on nano-science and nano-technology keeping, Chemistry as a main focus. Since I have background in organometallic chemistry, my research interests are revolving around the synthesis of various nano-particles by implying organometallic chemistry routes and solution reaction mechanism. In addition to it, direct inorganic coordination chemistry based methodology is also being applied in my programme. Due to this creative initiative taken by me, the department of chemistry at DIAT,  in now having almost all programmes revolving around applied chemistry leading to nanomaterials and polymer composites for their application in defence sector. Most of my research will normally be  supported by PhD, MTech students and project assistants as well as  MSc students of local colleges. Currently I am supervising 3 PhD students and 3 MTech students in the area of defence technology,  nanotechnology, organometallic and Inorganic chemistry for defence and general applications.

I am mainly active in the following areas;

NANOSCIENCE and FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS via synthesis of new organometallic compounds of selenium and tellurium by organometallic and inorganic chemistry including surface science, chemistry of surfactants, organic-inorganic hybrid systems for energy applications and defence requirement. Nanochemistry and Material science including nano-composites and their assorted alloy compositions etc. for synthesis of quantum dots, metal and metal orxide nano-particles and NPs/polymer composites for sensor, solar cell and Photocatalysis.
