In Optoelectronic Nanodevice Research Laboratory (OPTO NANO GROUP) led by Prof. Mukesh Kumar in Department of Electrical Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Indore we have been working on Optoelectronic Devices, Nanoelectronics, Integrated Photonics, and Nanofabrication. OPTO NANO GROUP is actively involved in the development of on-chip devices and functionalities for optical communication, interconnects, computing, bio-chemical sensing, and memory applications. The laboratory focuses on realizing new/improved optoelectronic functions by utilizing engineered/hybrid materials which include semiconductor heterojunctions (Silicon, 2D materials, TCOs and wide band semiconductors), optical metasurface, and photonic crystals.
