I have obtained my Ph.D. in Chemistry from Kongju National University, South Korea and I have done my M.Sc. in Physical Chemistry from Mahatma Gandhi University, India. After my Ph.D., I have worked as a postdoctoral researcher in Prof. Raz Jelinek&#8217;s group at Ben Gurion University of the Negev, Israel.<\/p>\n<p>My Ph.D. thesis is based on nanoscale self-assembly methods to obtain multi-component inorganic nanostructures. During this work, I had developed methods for site specific growth of metal nanoparticles on semiconductor nanorods and bottom-up synthesis of multi-segmented inorganic nanowires. During my postdoctoral studies in Israel, I was involved in the study of directed self-assembly routes to functional nanostructured surfaces. Novel methods for in situ growth and assembly of nanostructures on various substrates were developed from these studies.<\/p>\n<p>I joined Morin group at UNL in September 2015. Here I am engaged in research related to surface chemical processes aimed at controlled growth of micro\/nanostructures assisted by mechanical maneuvering of the substrates.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Email:\u00a0<\/strong>tpvinod79(at)gmail.com<\/p>\n<p><strong>Selected Publications:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>T.
