Deposition of CdSe/CdTe thin films by closed space sublimation for making solar cells. Optical inspection of the deposited thin films for surface roughness and defects. Analysis of the solar cells for their efficiency. Design of experiments for different deposition recipes to get the best quality solar cells. Operation and maintenance of the high vacuum CSS deposition tool. Participating in design review meetings and commissioning procedures of the production machines for factories.

Master thesis student. Experiment: Thin film deposition of bismuth ferrite by RF magnetron sputtering (PVD), conducting annealing experiments of the deposited films and performing electrical characterisation of the thin films to study the resistive switching of the deposited thin films. Simulation: Performing FEM simulation in COMSOL multiphysics to understand the irradiance distribution during flash annealing and heat distribution during the annealing experiments for the deposited thin films.

Assisting senior faculty members in conducting their experiments and their research activities simultaneously conducting experiments for the engineering students from their curriculum.
