Especially we are interested in the synthesis of porous metal oxides and organic/ metal oxide nanocomposites to obtain several heterostructures. In addition building the organic porous network by reacting special tectonsthrough several C-C coupling reactions for eg.,Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) and Conjugated Micro-/Meso-porous Polymers(CMPs) or avoiding their packing in such a way that it opens up the porosity, for eg.,Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity (PIMs). Research Interest Advanced Functional Nanomaterials for Energy and Environmental Applications like water splitting, CO2 conversion, gas storage, fine chemicals production, photovoltaics, fuel cells and batteries. My approach mostly depends on creating porosity in functional organic and inorganic materials by soft and hard templating approaches and their extensive characterization.
