Pankaj Poddar Research Group @ CSIR-NCLThe Colloidal Nanostructures and Nanomaterials Group We work on the areas which are highly interdisciplinary in nature around the colloidal nanoparticles and biological objects. Energy: Materials and strategies for 'solar photovoltics', thermoelectrics, rare earth free hard magnets Safety, health & environment: Interaction of nanomaterials with cells, drug functionalized nanomaterials, microbial interaction, bioimaging Materials for next generation four state, non-volatile memory devices: Multiferroic materials TeachingA semester long, 3 credit course (Titled: Advanced instrumentation techniques) in NCL pre-PhD programme It covers the following topics: 1. Electron microscopy (~ 20 lectures, 1.5 h each) 2. Scanning probe microscopy (~ 20 lectures, 1.5 h each) 3. Raman spectroscopy (~ 2 lectures, 1.5 h each) 4. Spectroscopic ellipsometry Apart from this I enjoy teaching various topics related to nanoscience, nucleation and growth chemistry of nanoscale materials, condensed matter physics at nanoscale.
