Research Areas
Research Interests
My research focuses on experimental and applied optical physics, particularly plasmonics, nanophotonics, and nanoscale light–matter interaction. I investigate localized surface plasmon resonance in metal nanoparticles using advanced techniques such as cathodoluminescence and electron energy-loss spectroscopy. I also work on the synthesis of metal oxide nanomaterials for supercapacitor applications, studying their structural, optical, and electrochemical properties for energy storage, sensing, and photonic technologies.
