👻 Forget spooky costumes — our wafers are already dressed for the occasion. #HappyHalloween 🎃

*Please retweet* Looking forward to presenting an online talk on energy materials as part the @beyondbenign @IUPAC webinar series. Registration: mailchi.mp/ae959a1fc960/c…

Last year, we made it even better. Now, for my final Open Day as a student, we're going BIGGER than ever! 💥 📍 Catch this interactive exhibit at the Dept. of Materials Engineering on March 1, 2025 @ IISc! #IIScOpenDay #Oobleck #ScienceFun #NonNewtonianFluids

🚀 From a Wild Idea to a Crowd Favorite! 🚀 Back in my 3rd year, I randomly decided to demo Non-Newtonian Fluids at IISc Open Day—got a pool, tons of cornstarch, & made Oobleck! Kids LOVED it. 😄

If you’re around on March 1, 2025, don’t miss this interactive exhibit at the Department of Materials Engineering during IISc Open Day! Experience Oobleck's mind-bending physics and rediscover science's joy in the most hands-on way possible. See you there! 👏🔬💙 @ #IIScOpenDay

The event also included a tour of our state-of-the-art AFMM facility, where I had the wonderful opportunity to interact with students, introduce them to Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), and discuss its versatile use cases in surface properties characterization.

This workshop aimed to introduce various microscopy and microanalysis tools to students and faculty from resource-limited institutions in and around Bangalore, providing them with exposure to advanced characterization techniques.

Thrilled to be part of the organizing team for the "Microscopy and Microanalysis Workshop on Research and Development" at IISc, organized by the Advanced Facility for Microscopy and Microanalysis (AFMM) and generously funded by Bruker and DIR-COE, IISc.

Honored and grateful to receive the Best Poster Presentation Award at the 38th Annual Students’ Symposium, IISc! 🎉 A big thank you to my advisor, Prof. Sachin Rondiya for his constant support and guidance. Looking forward to many more opportunities to share and refine my work!🚀

@Astha0810 @cacee2024 Congratulations 🎉💯✨

Had an amazing experience at the @cacee2024 conference at TIFR Mumbai! Grateful to the organizers for a well-curated event. Thrilled to receive the Best Poster Award and honored to present my work in an oral presentation based on the selection.

Followed by a back to basics talk by Prof DD Sarma on the topic of "Halide Perovskites: Past Excitements and Recent Surprises"

Perovskite India 24 #HyPe24 Day 1: A must attend talk delivered by Prof Prashant V. Kamat (@KamatlabND), the Editor in Chief, ACS Energy Letters, into "Mastering the Art of Scientific Publication".

Attending the Perovskite India Conference 2024 (#HyPe24) at NISER, Bhubaneswar. Excited for all the exciting plenary and invited talks.

KAUST, Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin present 31.2%-efficient blade-coated perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell: The perovskite-silicon tandem device has a two terminal configuration and a 2D perovskite layers at the bottom… dlvr.it/TFgXgm #Renewables #Energy #Technology

What a breakthrough in the field, wow!

The moment I see blue LEDs, I like. Because we know how hard it is to make one, much more a good one. Neat work! nature.com/articles/s4156…

A new twist on electron-hole exchange interaction! A collaboration led by Joon Jang (Sogang Univ, S. Korea): Contrary to expectations, the strongest biexciton binding in Br-based 2D perovskites occurs at n=2, not n=1, due to phase transitions. pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…

@sominpk @NUSingapore @JSAP_official @Materials_MRS Congratulations, that's awesome 🎉💐

My first conference after becoming a PI at @NUSingapore. Thank you for inviting me and hosting the @JSAP_official @Materials_MRS joint symposium in Niigata. I was very happy to reconnect with old friends and make new ones with rich Japanese culture and food!

@TisdaleWA @DouLetian A great read indeed, professor. Highly interesting work. Have been following Prof Dou's work on 2D Perovskites for a while. Knowledgeable insights and highly relevant work.

See below for a highlight I wrote of the impressive work on 2D perovskite Moiré superlattices from @DouLetian and Libai Huang!

Perovskites advancing the photovoltaics landscape. Exciting Advancements!
