I have been working in the area of electronic materials with emphasis on III-V compound semiconductor nanostructures with an aim to tune the properties for specific applications in the field of optoelectronics and energy. Using MOCVD system, growth of quantum wells for fabricating 1.55 mm InGaAs/InP laser structure were undertaken. Expertise of fabricating quantum wells having well width as 19, 39, 78 and 150 Å and barrier of 300 Å are also available. As a continuation, further research on low dimensional structures such as quantum dots and quantum wires are now undertaken with the help of external funding for photovoltaic and memory applications. Studies on growth mode and heteroepitaxial growth is now prime objectives. At the same time, research on thermoelectrics are also started with an aim to develop materials for thermoelectric generators for rural households to recover electricity from waste heat during their cooking. we have experimented with new ideas like impurity resonance, nanostructuring and carrier energy filtering in the area of thermoelectric to obtain enhanced power factor and thermoelectric efficiency.
