Research area of interest:
My research interests are particularly inclined towards Materials Chemistry and the use of computational techniques to study their properties. Currently I am working on theoretical aspects fullerene based functionalized materials. Since the discovery of fullerene research based on fullerene has seen an exponential growth. Even after three decades, some of its new properties still fascinates us and I aim to contribute my part in exploiting these properties in a way that it not only enhances our knowledge but also are beneficial to the mankind.
