Suumary of Acomplishments in teaching and research (in last 5 years)

Teaching : The biggest success I have achieved is that the students have appreciated my teaching

Research: We have devolpoed a low cost Chemical Vapour deposition(CVD) Technique for the decomposition of SnO2 thin films of high quality .Films having very good conductivity and Transmission and excellent crystalinity have been obtained .this work has been accepted for publication in materials letters.
Single phase thin films of CuInS2 and CdS have been grown by having optoelectronic and Non-linear applications is being grown in our lab by Electrodeposition .Single phase CuinSe2 thin films have been obtained in aqueous electromechanical bath.containing using Acetonitrile as a complexing agent .
During the last five years one student of mine has been awarded the Ph.D degree ,and four student are working under my guidance for Ph.D .I have just completed one DST sponsored Research Project on the Electrodeposition of CuInSe2 thin films.
