  • Properties of novel materials at extreme conditions of pressure and temperature.

I have been working on transition metal dichalcogenide materials in bulk as well as few layer forms. I try to see how structural as well as electronic properties of these materials change with the application of pressure. To investigate that we basically perform synchrotron X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy measurements and transport properties measurements at high pressure. Recently I am working on materials having geophysical interests. We synthesize earth's inner core materials at extreme condition of pressure and temperature using laser heated diamond anvil cell facility available in our lab. We also study Equation of states of this synthesized materials up to core pressure and temperature.
