We are delighted to share that our faculty member, Dr. Sk Riyajuddin, is currently undertaking a two-month research visit to Meijo University as part of an international academic exchange program.

During his stay, Dr. Riyajuddin will explore the growth of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) for the fabrication of advanced quantum devices aimed at detecting thermal heat generation in energy storage and electrocatalytic hydrogen generation systems. This research has significant potential for improving the safety, efficiency and reliability of next-generation energy storage and conversion technologies.

This exchange visit is supported by the India-Japan collaborative research program, sponsored by the Department of Science & Technology, Government of India (DST), and Meijo University, Japan.

This mutually beneficial collaborative project is expected to strengthen international research partnerships, foster knowledge exchange and contribute to addressing the growing challenges associated with heat generation in energy storage and energy conversion systems.
We sincerely thank all our collaborators and funding agencies for their invaluable support in making this research partnership possible.

๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐š๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐š๐ซ๐ฒ: We have nanoengineered clean and nontoxic Cu@Cu2O coreโ€“shell nanoparticles by intense nanosecond laser-driven ablation. The quantitative assessment of antibacterial efficacy reveals concentration-dependent activity of the nanocomposites against both Escherichia coli and Bacillus pumilus. A strong inhibition in the bacterial growth was observed even at a concentration as low as 5 ฮผg m/L. On the other hand, the study of cell viability assays suggests that the nanoparticles are biocompatible with human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cells and safe for clinical applications at an appropriate dose. Furthermore, we also present SERS activity of Congo red dye molecules using the laser-synthesized Cu@Cu2O coreโ€“shell nanoparticle substrate, for the first time, improving the limit of detection by three orders of magnitude down to a concentration of 10^ -8 M. These results establish the Cu@Cu2O coreโ€“shell nanoparticles as ideal medicinal candidates with combined antibacterial efficacy, good cellular biocompatibility, and excellent SERS activity, which are beneficial for their applications in therapeutics, sensing, and environmental monitoring.

Congratulations to the entire team on this excellent achievement and best wishes for many more impactful contributions ahead. To more about Prof. Adak's work visit: https://adakamitava.wixsite.com/llpi/members
