His current research involves synthesis of nanocatalyst for growth of carbon nanotube arrays, characterization of nanotubes, study of growth of nanoparticles synthesized using PLD method in collaboration with Smart Structures Bio-Nanotechnology Laboratory at University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH and study of magnetic properties of thin films.
His doctoral research work includes synthesis of nanocomposite thin films for magnetic storage devices, pulsed laser deposition (PLD), mechanical and microstructural characterization of nanostructures and fracture toughness study of thin films using indentation techniques. Some of the projects he worked with include embedding of iron or nickel metal nanoparticles into amorphous alumina matrix by laser ablation method and developing nanocomposites with improved hardness and modulus.
Education
He received his doctoral degree in Mech. Engineering from North Carolina A&T State University in May 2006. He obtained his B.S. from Nagarjuna University, India and joined NC A&T State University for his Master’s program in Mech. Engineering in 2002.

A novel chip-scale instrument made from carbon nanotubes may simplify absolute measurements of laser power. Developers of the unit at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) say it may prove especially useful for measuring light signals transmitted by optical fibers in telecom networks.
German researchers have created a new heart model could serve as a test organ to help determine the health impacts of select artificial nanoparticles. The team is from the Helmholtz Zentrum Muenchen and the Technische Universität Muenchen.
