Advisor: Dr. Devin MackenziePHOTONIC SINTERING TO IMPROVE THE SCALABILITY OF PRINTED SENSORS• Decreased sintering time remarkably for high speed processing/manufacturing • Redesigned the drying process and increased the throughput• Designed/built High Intensity Xenon flash lamp system for photonic/flash sintering.• Developed mechanical and electrical design and assembly skills• Devised a simple method for testing the efficiency of the equipment

Tiruchchirappalli Area, India

SYNTHESIS OF POLYANILINE BASED ZINC OXIDE NANO COMPOSITES• Synthesized the nanocomposite for specific gas sensor application• Verified change in resistance with Hydrogen exposure through characterization• Obtained stable films by using strict quality standards and using probe sonicator for better dispersion

Department Of Metallurgical And Materials Engineering

STUDY OF Fe-Co-Mo-B BULK METALLIC GLASSES• The Bulk Metallic Glasses were prepared using mechanical ball milling process to produce the required amorphous phase• Optimized the process parameters like composition, milling time, sintering temperature and time to obtain the amorphous phase which produces the BMG• The powder samples were sintered using Spark Plasma Sintering to prevent crystallization while sintering• The samples were characterized using XRD to confirm the presence of amorphous phase• Other characterizations like DSC, SEM were used to further study the properties of the BMG

New Delhi Area, India

During my research work at IIT Delhi, I worked on the synthesis of copper foams. During my project I also volunteered to solve the porosity problem in steel castings faced by the casting department.SYNTHESIS OF COPPER FOAMS TO PRODUCE POROUS ELECTRODES• Synthesized copper foams using sacrificial template method• Tailored the synthesis process for producing highly porous and mechanically stable foams • Solved the problem of oxidation by carefully analyzing and using microwave sintering in argon atmosphere• Evaluated mechanical properties of the pores along with SEM characterization to ensure they meet the requirementsSOLVING - POROSITY IN STEEL CASTING• Volunteered to help the casting department solve the problem of porosity in steel castings• Analyzed the steel casting at various stages of production to understand the problem better• Studied the various factors and analyzed the whole process to determine the root cause of the problem• Performed literature research to identify solutions to the problem and eradicated porosity in steel castings
