Organic solar cells (OSC) have been emerging as promising energy harvesting technology because of their low-cost fabrication, semitransparency, solution processability and ability to be produced in large scale using ...

Self-assembled Coordination Architectures & Donor-Acceptor Systems: Synthesis, Characterization and Applications Atul Kumar The extraordinary ability of biological systems to develop complex and functional molecular ...

The importance of non-covalent interactions cannot be undermined, as it permeates nearly every sphere of chemistry. The hydrogen bond is the most well-known and ubiquitous non-covalent interaction. In recent times similar ...

SnSe2 is a semiconductor with unique and interesting properties such as band gap with layer thickness dependence. Theoretically, it has been predicted that the band gap can be varied between 1.2 and 2.04 eV. This range of ...

This thesis embodies work on modeling magnetic anisotropy in molecular magnets. Understanding the factors that govern the magnitude of anisotropy in these materials is crucial for tailoring molecules that can be used in ...

We successfully designed and synthesized a series of thiophene based luminophores. We were able to modulate the optical band gap of these luminophores by systematically fine-tuning the chemical structure of these compounds. ...

Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials have gained tremendous interest since the discovery of graphene in 2004 due to their unique physical and chemical properties. They have been used in various research fields ...

In the current scenario of global warming, pollution and the very limited resources of fossil fuels, Li ion batteries show great promises to fulfil the energy demand of modern civilization without harming the environment. ...

The work reported in this thesis contains extensive studies carried out to investigate the weak molecular interactions in small organic molecules by utility of multinuclear and multidimensional NMR spectroscopic techniques ...

Development of nanomaterials that mimic enzyme-like catalytic activities (nanozymes) has drawn special attention in recent time. Nanozymes possess exclusive advantages over natural enzymes like high stability, large-scale ...
