Activities and Societies: Active member of Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) Volunteered Diwali Event During my Post-Doc expand my skill sets on different sensors like Gas, Alpha, Hall with specific focus on gas sensors. I also developed Gas-sensing set-up in Stanford Xlab with a help of PhD student. One manuscript related to flexible H2S gas sensing is in the process of submission. We are also applying for the patent related to flexible alpha sensor. Moreover, another 2-work related to AlGaN-hall sensors in collaboration with UIUC and Arkansa are under preparation.

We are also applying for the patent related to flexible alpha sensor. Moreover, another 2-work related to AlGaN-hall sensors in collaboration with UIUC and Arkansa are under preparation. I collaborated here with various groups like Prof. Frank group in SLAC for gas sensing DFT, Prof. Matteo in Stanford University for Alpha Sensor in Stanford, and Prof. Eric group in Stanford University to create MoS2 based gas-sensor.
