OverviewAI-generated summary
Puskar R. Chapagain's research centers on the synthesis, characterization, and application of nanomaterials, with a particular focus on their optoelectronic and magnetic properties. His work includes investigations into tunable surface plasmon resonance of gold nanorods, the longitudinal assembly of gold nanorods on various templates for optoelectronic devices, and the magnetic properties of aluminum oxide nanopowder reinforced with carbon nanotubes. Chapagain has also studied the optoelectronic surface-related properties of diamond thin films and the transient surface photovoltage of porous silicon. His research extends to the in situ transmission electron microscopy of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Chapagain has collaborated with researchers from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock and the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. He has published 17 papers, with 108 citations, and holds an h-index of 4.
