Superhydrophobic metallic surface
Research Projects
1. Functionalization of metallic glasses
Metallic glasses (MGs) has been emerged as potential materials in catalysts, sensors, and nanoimprinting. Objective of this project is to functionalize MGs through surface engineering and chemistry. We are developing new patterning methods to tune the surface properties of MGs. One of the major accomplishment is hierarchical surface which is very essential for mimicking superhydrophobic surface . We developed multi-tier metallic pattern consisting micro- and nanostructures by novel sequential embossing method.
2. Janus Particles
Most of the Janus particles (JPs) are made of polymers. Metallic JPs are limited to few inorganic elements such as Ag and Au. The goal of this project is to develop novel fabrication methods to fabricate inorganic and hybrid JPs .
3. High-throughput fabrication of high aspect ratio metallic glass nanostructures
4. Size effect on mechanical properties of metallic glasses
5. Developing ionic thrusters for small satellites
