Research Interest
Bottom-up Chemistry approach for designing microporous and mesoporous materials: We design novel organic/ inorganic/organic-inorganic hybrid porous frameworks under templating or non-templating pathways. Adsorption, gas storage, energy storage, sensing, optical and catalytic properties of these porous nanomaterials are being studied in depth to explore their potential in energy and environmental research.
