Major fields of my research interest are nonlinear optics and biophotonics, lasers and ultrafast optics, nonlinear laser spectroscopy, sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy, bulk and interfacial chemistry, surface sciences, surface spectroscopy, interfacial electrochemistry, and self-assembly.

My current research activities at KTH focus on investigating the vibrational features, intermolecular interactions, and molecular ordering at electrode surfaces by using total internal reflection (TIR) Raman and SFG vibrational spectroscopies. This helps towards better understanding of the electrochemical transport of charge in the forms of ions or electrons across the electrochemical interfaces by simultaneously measuring electrochemistry and spectroscopy as well as makes major advances in electrochemical devices and technology i.e., batteries, solar cells, and fuel cells.

In the past, my research focused on the investigation of molecular structures, intermolecular interactions, and hydrogen bonding coordination in binary mixtures, interfacial and bulk water, self-assembly of molecules, and drug polymer interactions by using linear and nonlinear vibrational spectroscopy.
