Parveen
PostDoc

Parveen is Research Associate in Sadewasser Research Group. His current research is focused on atomic scale study of hydrogenation and oxidation of catalytic nano materials responsible for hydrogen production by water splitting or similar other processes.
He has a Bachelor of Technology Degree (2009) in Electronics and Communication Engineering from MDU Rohtak, India and a Master of Technology degree (2012) in VLSI design from NIT Kurukshetra, India.
He obtained PhD degree (2021) from IIT Jodhpur, India with thesis titled “A Scanning Tunneling Microscopy study of Single Organic Molecular Device”. His Research work emphasized on developing methodologies for atomically flat self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of organic materials using state of the art Low Temperature Scanning Tunneling Microscope (LT-STM) system under Ultra-High Vacuum (UHV) conditions to study electrical and physical properties of supramolecular structures. He also performed Density Functional Theory (DFT) study on single organic molecule in two terminal configurations to correlate theoretical data with experimental results. He also gained experience on microfabrication and characterization of organic and Metal Organic Framework (MOF) thin film devices for memristor applications.
Parveen worked at the University of Manchester, UK (2022-2023) on permeation of protons and hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of graphene and other 2D material's monolayer to enhance and control the proton conductivity. Before joining INL, he also served at IIT Roorkee, India (Feb-Sep 2024) in a project focused on Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) synthesis of Transition Metal Dichalcogenide (TMDC) materials for optoelectronics and bolometer applications.
