Research Statement
My Research effort is focused on (i)Metasurface for imaging and communication -simulation and application, and (ii) Integrated RF Systems- design and deployment. In brief, Metasurfaces are two-dimensional array of electromagnetic resonators designed to control wave propagation in free-space and guided mode. Realization of such electromagnetic latticerequires thorough understanding thephysics of wave-matter interaction, simulationof wave-propagation, optimization of the meta-atom unit and finally fabrication of the real-time device and their deployment.
