Research

I completed my B.Sc. in Chemistry from St. Xavier's College and my M.Sc. in Chemistry from VIT Vellore. During my master's thesis at IIT Kanpur under Prof. V. G. Rao, I worked on all-inorganic perovskite nanocrystals, investigating their energy-transfer behavior and photocatalytic properties. After that, I briefly worked at the Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences (CeNS), where I developed core/shell perovskite nanocrystals for enhanced stability. At Northwestern, I work in the Kanatzidis group on the synthesis of transition metal halide-chalcogenide compounds and new perovskite-like metal halides.
