Education
2011-
Postdoc at The University of Alabama, USA, “Synthesis of Ternary and Quaternary Metal Chalcogenide Nanoparticles for Spintronics” Ph.D at The University of Manchester, UK, “New Molecular Precursors for Metal Sulfides” 2003-2005 M.Sc (Chemistry): Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli, India B.Sc (Chemistry): Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli, India First class - 78.09%

Experience
M.Sc. Research
“Towards Synthetic Metallohydrolases: Synthesis, Stucture and DNA
Binding Behavior of Mixed Ligand Copper(II) Complexes of a Tetradentate Phenolate
Ligand with certain Diimines” (Prof. M. Palaniandavar, School of Chemistry,
Bharathidasan University). I studied the interactions of metal complexes with DNA and
received an IAS Fellowship to visit and work on metal – DNA chemistry with Prof. A.
R.Chakravarty, Inorganic and Physical Chemistry, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore.
Industrial Research I worked as a Research Executive (Orchid Chemicals and
Pharmaceuticals Ltd., Chennai, India, July, 2005 - September, 2007). I synthesized four
active Pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and developed pilot-level scale up, which
included satisfying safety control and regulatory requirements. Two novel chiral
compounds were prepared and resolved. The development of the APIs involved reduction
reactions using pyrophoric catalysts including: Raney Ni, Pd/C and Rh/Al2O3, and also
handling hazardous chemicals such as: LiAlH4, NaBH4, NaH, Na, K and Vitride. I also
gained knowledge of patent evaluation and submission.

Ph.D Research
“New Molecular Precursors for Metal Sulfides” (Prof. Paul O’Brien,
School of Chemistry, The University of Manchester, UK). I have been involved in number
of different research projects, practical lab demonstrating to undergraduate students and
outreach activities with young people. The main thrust of my research is to synthesis
metal sulfide thin films and nanoparticles by new routes. I have successfully synthesised
and explored a wide range of novel complexes of thio- and dithio-biurets (producing more
than 20 new or novel compounds see ref. 4). I have also synthesised and characterised
wide range of nanoparticles for various applications including solar cells. Other
opportunities have include participation in international collaborations. Two months were
spent with Prof. Neerish Revaprasadu (University of Zululand, South Africa) working on
novel methods for lead chalcogenide nanostructures. I spent 20 days learning the basic
techniques of high resolution XPS with Prof. D. D. Sarma (Indian Institute of Science,
Bangalore, India). I have hands-on experience with various sophisticated instruments
including: Perkin Elmer FT-IR Spectroscopy, EG & G PAR 273 potentiostat/Galvanostat
cyclic voltammetry, Varian Cary 300 Double Beam UV/Vis Spectrophotometer, Jasco J-
716 Spectroflurometer, Schott – Gerate AVS 310 Automated Viscometer, Gel
Electrophoresis, Bruker PXRD, Philips XL-30 FEGSEM, Philips cm200 TEM, Tecnai
HRTEM.
My work has resulted in a number of peer reviewed journal publications (26 to date),
presentations at conferences and in two granted patents.
