I'm a dedicated researcher with a profound passion for harnessing printed electronics technology to pioneer high-performance, mechanically flexible, and optically transparent large-area electronics. A glimpse of my research work is available on the Research page.
Currently, I am working as a Post-doctoral researcher at the Institute of Automation and Applied Informatics (IAI), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Germany. Before joining IAI, I worked at the University of Glasgow, UK and the University of Stuttgart, Germany, as a Post-doctoral Researcher and at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras as a pre-doctoral fellow (PDEF).
I received my Bachelor of Technology in Electronics and Communication Engineering and Master of Technology in VLSI and Embedded Systems from Mahatma Gandhi University in India. I obtained my PhD in interdisciplinary research from IIT Madras. My research focused on creating flexible and transparent devices utilising silver nanowire-based printable inks, emphasising printed transparent antennas, sensors, and actuators. I have received various recognition and awards (Achievements). I have granted patents, authored or co-authored research articles and book chapters, and presented my work at national and international conferences. The complete list of my publication is available on the Publications page.
