About Organic (Opto)electronic Materials Lab

Research in my group at IISER Mohali has been directed towards design and synthesis of organic chromophores to control their excited state properties for specific applications. The new p-conjugated organic molecules with tailored properties are designed along the following themes:

  • Multichromophoric light harvesting (LH) antenna and macrocycles for Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and their utilization as multi-stimuli responsive sensors;

  • Donor-acceptor (D-A) twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) rotors as multifunctional sensors

  • Twisted D-A conjugates as thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials

  • Applications of above molecules as metal-free visible and near infrared (NIR) light photocatalysts for organic transformations and hydrogen evolution.

Research Interests

  • Design and Synthesis of Conjugated Organic Molecules and Chromophores (with Emphasis on Donor - Acceptor Systems).
  • Photoinduced Processes such as Electron Transfer, Energy Transfer and Charge Transfer.
  • Application of Synthesized Molecules/Materials for (Opto)electronics & Photocatalysis.
