Awards & Recognitions

1.       Received “late prof Dnyaneshwar Kothawale” prize for standing 1^st in physics F.Y.B.Sc.

2.      Received  three prizes in M.Sc. from Nowrosjee wadia College i.e. “jadkar prize”, “Dr H.V. Modak prize” and “1^st in M.Sc physics exam”

3.       In M.SC my project was on Aerosol Measurements.

4.       Pursuing Ph.D in “SYNTHESIS, STUDIES ON OPTICAL AND ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES OF METAL POLYMER NANOCOMPOSITE OF HUMIDITY SENSING”.

5.       I developed a humidity sensor on optical based. It very sensitive to humidity and it doesn’t require any power supply. I used new concept for that in optical sensor. I am working on gas sensor also by using electrical method. For sensor fabrication I synthesized materials and sensor in lab.

6.       I have knowledge of characterization methods such as FTIR, SEM, TEM, UV-Visible, XRD and Impedance spectroscopy
