Research
Our research program focuses on experimental and computational efforts aimed at developing scientific frameworks for understanding the correlation between the chemical structure, microscopic organization and dynamics and how these relationships determine physicochemical and electrochemical properties of relevance to current and future energy technologies. The central theme of our research is to develop fundamental foundations for rational design of novel safe, efficient, and environmentally benign electrolytes. Our current research interests can be broadly categorized into three main areas, namely, (i) Mesoscopic Structured Liquids (particularly ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents), (ii) Polymer Dynamics and (iii) Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy and its Applications.
