Current Research

My broad area of interest is experimental condensed matter physics. My research interest lies in understanding the evolution of electronic structure and associated local and global structural changes in various complex transition metal oxides across various electronic and magnetic phase transitions. The techniques that I use are x-ray diffraction, x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), photoelectron spectroscopy, magnetotransport measurements etc. I also use computational tools to understand the observed spectra. I am currently working on materials that show quantum phase transition, superconductivity, phase separation, disorder effects, spintronic effects etc.
