Research Interest
Abha’s group works on engineering of sensors and energy storage systems and focuses on studying interfaces between different physical phenomena at nanoscale.
- Two-dimensional graphene and metal dichalcogenides based field effect transistors (FET) are employed to develop nanoscale devices.
- The atomic scale interfaces are coupled with two-dimensional array of metal inclusions for opto-electronic doping used for molecular memory devices.
- Molecular interaction is studied for the fabrication of molecular switch.
- On-chip electrochemical supercapacitor study provides novel avenues to miniature energy storage system beyond batteries.
- Self-powered sensors and energy storage systems are also the focus of ongoing research.
