I have worked in diverse
areas of Physics research essentially guided by what gave pleasure to me.
Trained basically as an experimentalist using primarily Mössbauer
spectroscopy, I have ventured in theoretical modeling of electric field
gradients in hexagonal and tetragonal crystalline systems, development of
fast algorithms for evaluating three dimensional lattice summations,
simulation of phase transitions in liquid crystals etc. Currently I am back
to experimental research in the field of synthesis of nonequilibrium alloys
using electrodeposition, of nanoparticles of magnetically ordered oxides
such as ferrite and transition metal doped semiconductor oxides, ceramic
nanoparticles such as titanates of barium and bismuth, etc. Other areas of
my current research activities in condense matter/material science include
effect of mechanical working on binary and ternary alloys. Yet another areas
of my active research activities is geoscience especially study of
Meteorites, extraterrestrial impacts on the earth, and geological extinction
boundaries. |
