Centre for NEMS and Nanophotonics (CNNP), IIT Madras - Where we usually mooch off fabrication resources
Experimental Optics Laboratory (ExpO Lab), IIT Madras - Where we characterize structures fabricated in CNNP
Interests
Surface Plasmon Polaritons and devices based on them
Micro and Nanoscale optical devices
Metamaterials
Development of simple fabrication techniques
Usually, my students design, fabricate and characterize the devices going through the entire cycle several times for their theses.
