Past Projects
Biotemplating to synthesise inverse-gyroid photonic crystals
Location: Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar (IITGN)
Advisor: Dr. Abhijit Mishra
January 2018 - December 2018
- Created the gyroid phase in a mixture of 1,2-Dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DOPE) and 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine (DOPS) with Octa-arginine.
- Attempted to create an inverse gyroid structure by crystallising CdS on the lipid gyroid template.
Composite Fabrication using conventional and 3D printing methods
Location: Texas A&M University (TAMU)
Advisor: Dr. Terry Creasy
May 2018 - July 2018
- Built a filament winder (capable of b-staging with ultraviolet light) to produce prepreg and wind flywheel rotors.
- Produced high fibre volume fraction (52%) polymer matrix composite using the filament winder.
Electronic structure calculations using high-performance computing (HPC)
Location: Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST)
Advisor: Dr. Ryo Maezono
May 2017 - July 2017
- Studied the energetics and plotted the emission spectra for adsorption of Nitrogen Monoxide (NO) gas on catalyst surfaces using DFT.
- Implemented fully-automated scripts for carrying out DFT-based phonon calculations.
