search interest is in the fabrication, functionalization and 

application of nanostructured materials whose physical 

properties can be widely and easily tuned by adjusting 

composition, size, shape, crystal structure, and surface 

properties. My research is oriented to understand the for- 

mation and properties of nanostructures, design and fabricate 

novel electronic and photonic devices and other 

functional materials based on these nanostructures. TEL:

unique specificity and sensitivity for high-throughput detection 

of biomolecules and pathogens. The other area is 

to investigate nanotoxicity using analytical techniques 

like capillary (array) electrophoresis, chromatography, 

mass spectrometry, microscopy imaging, and flow cytometry.
