O autorze

Dr. Sangita Das is working as Newton International Fellow at Durham University, England, United Kingdom. She also works as a visiting professor in the Department of Energy Science in Mahatma Gandhi University, Kerala, India. She received her B. Sc. degree with honors in chemistry in 2008 from the University of Calcutta, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. She obtained her M. Sc. degree in chemistry with organic specialization in 2010 from the same university. She had qualified the all India (CSIR-JRF) NET, and then she joined "The Goswami Group,” Department of Chemistry, IIEST for her doctoral work under the supervision of Prof. Shyamaprosad Goswami. She got Ph.D. in 2016. Her areas of research interest include molecular recognition; design of fluorescence chemosensors; and characterization of fluorescence probe (detection of metal ions, anions, reactive oxygen species, nerve gas, and other environmentally hazardous species, etc.); aggregation-induced emission dyes and solid-state emitters, and synthesis of compounds with antidiabetic activity. She is now working as a Newton International Fellow in the United Kingdom. Her current research activities include the development of compounds as HDAC inhibitors, experimental and theoretical investigations of electronic structure of transition metal complexes with redox noninnocent ligands, and computational chemistry (DFT, TDDFT calculations).

Professor Sabu Thomas is currently the Vice Chancellor of Mahatma Gandhi University and Director of the School of Energy Materials. He is also a full professor of Polymer Science and Engineering at the School of Chemical Sciences of Mahatma Gandhi University, Kottayam, Kerala, India, and the Founder Director and Professor of the International and Interuniversity Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. Prof. Thomas has received international acclaim for his work in Nanoscience, Polymer Science and Engineering, Polymer Nanocomposites, Elastomers, Polymer Blends, Interpenetrating Polymer Networks, Polymer Membranes, Green Composites and Nanocomposites, Nanomedicine and Green Nanotechnology.

Dr. Partha Pratim Das is presently working as a postdoctoral researcher in Seoul National University, South Korea. He previously worked in the Institute of High-Pressure Mineral Physics and Chemistry, Yonsei University, Seoul, South Korea, as a postdoctoral researcher. He has completed both the B.Sc. (2008) and M.Sc. (2010) in chemistry from Calcutta University, India. He has received Ph.D. in science (chemistry) in 2016 from Jadavpur University, India. His working laboratories during Ph.D. are CSIR-CGCRI, Kolkata, and CSIR-NCL, Pune, India. His research area is focused on nanotechnology, synthesis, and structure-properties correlation studies of different multifunctional nanomaterials under various conditions for mainly clean and sustainable energy and environmental applications. He has published several high-impact papers in peer-reviewed journals. Moreover, his research works have been acclaimed in many national and international conferences and journal societies.
