RESEARCH
- Experimental and computational analysis of the molecule based magnetic properties; e.g. antiferromagnetic/ferromagnetic interactions, slow relaxation of magnetization, single molecular magnetic (SMM) behavior, magnetocaloric effect for cryogenic refrigeration (MCE).
- Design and synthesis of coordination polymers (CPs) and metal organic frameworks (MOFs) with different architectures.
- Investigation on spin crossover properties in iron based molecular materials.
- Studies on syntheses and physical properties of conducting Single-Molecule Quantum Magnets.
