He received his Doctor of Philosophy degree in Chemistry from Osaka University, Japan. He did his PhD studies in the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research, Osaka University and focused on etching Si to produce nanocrystalline Si surfaces and using the nanocrystalline Si surface as anti-reflective surface for solar cells. His current research focuses on the optoelectronic properties of chemically modified organic conjugated polymers for solar cell applications by computational studies. His other research interests involve: materials science, surface chemistry, and electrochemistry.
