Research Interests

Dr. Vaddiraju’ research work focuses on the development of novel vapor phase techniques for the synthesis of organic and inorganic nanostructures and the development and implementation of novel in-situ and ex-situ schemes for the large-scale integration of these nanostructures into energy conversion devices (e.g., solar cells, thermoelectric devices).
