Research Summary

Dr. Sagade's research explores studies of low-dimensional novel electronic materials, components and device architectures. In particular, charge transport in electronic components such as field effect transistors, Schottky diodes, physical (photons, magnetic field, strain, temperature, gas flow) and chemical (ammonia, hydrogen, humidity) sensors and bendable devices. Various functional materials are deployed in these applications including graphene, organic & inorganic nanowires, and metal chalcogenide thin films. A number of research projects are aimed to work closely with industrial links and large network of collaborators.
