Research Area: Materials Science - Nonlinear Optics and NanomaterialsGraphene is a fascinating material that has garnered ever increasing interest from the scientific community over the past decade. Because of its exceptional properties, graphene is already being used in a wide variety of applications including electronics, energy storage devices, gas sensing, and bio-applications such as biosensors, drug delivery, stem cell differentiation, antibacterial agents, cellular imaging and antibacterial activity. However, in the last several years, the incessant search for new avenues that would benefit from graphene has led to the advent of graphene-nanoparticle hybrid structures, which combine the unique and advantageous properties of nanomaterialsnanotechnology with those of graphene to produce advantageous and often synergistic effects. Presently, the research is focused on the synthesis of Carbon Nanomaterials particularly Graphene Oxide Graphene metal oxide Nanoparticles from organic wastes.
