Nanomaterials for Energy, Environment and Sensing (NEES) Research Group<\/strong><\/p>

Nanomaterials for Energy, Environment and Sensing (NEES) is a research group under Bio-Nano Materials Science and Engineering program, Industrial Systems Engineering Department, School of Engineering and Technology. It is supervised by Dr. Tanujjal Bora. NEES is a highly interdisciplinary research group with students from both Science and Engineering background working together. The group focuses on the use of inexpensive synthesis techniques to prepared semiconductor nanomaterials, plasmonic materials, nanocomposites, porous materials, and thin films, and apply them in various applications like perovskite solar cells, photothermal energy harvesters, photocatalytic water\/air purifiers, soft smart materials, self-healing materials, detection of toxic chemicals and wastes in the environment, SERS substrate design, biosensors for chemicals and disease detection and optical coatings.<\/p>
