Welcome to the Optoelectronic Materials and Devices Research Group at Department of Physics, SVNIT, Surat. We work on semiconductor materials and thin films for optoelectronic device research. We have current projects in CIGS, CZTS, and Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Perovskites based solar PV. Apart from thin film PV, we are actively involved in semiconductor lasers and LED research. We also work on other nanomaterials synthesis and applications such as photocatalysis based waste-water treatments, 2d materials and sensors. Optimization algorithms and their applications in optoelectronics and semiconductors, instrumentations and automations are other areas of our interest.
