My work in UHMob

Aiming to study various molecular semiconductors by bulk polymorph screening. The stability as well as the crystal structure of the polymorphs is to be analysed. Moreover, the identification of molecular features and crystal growth conditions favouring robustness against polymorphism will be part of the study. Based on the experiments and results, the best-performing molecular semiconductors will be obtained.

After UHMob

  • Date of Thesis submission: 31 January 2023
  • Date of thesis defense: 15 June 2023
  • Job after PhD defense: Academic- Post Doc in the field of crystallography

About Me

I am from India, state – Uttar Pradesh, settled in Kolkata (state- West Bengal) – also known as the “city of joy”. I did my schooling from Kendriya Vidyalaya (KVS) from various regions of India. I hold a B.Sc. (Honours) degree in Chemistry from West Bengal State University and M.Sc. degree in Nanotechnology from Central University of Gujarat. I like to travel and fond of good music and food.
