ABOUT ME
My research work is mainly focusing on four main sections; first section on the preparation of room temperature ferromagnetic metal oxide coupled nanocomposites and metal doped TiO2 by simple hydrothermal method; a second section on the interfacial electron transfer (IFET) mechanism has been probed using UV and visible light excited anatase TiO2 and transition metal complex in water; a third section on synthesis and characterization of single site transition metal oxide grafted on TiO2 by photochemical method and the last section on hydrothermally and photochemically prepared nanocomposite materials apply on energy and environment applications. Hence, I have very good research experience and expertise particularly in the fields of synthesis of nanocomposites, photocatalysts, magnetism and Mössbauer spectroscopy.
