Mix and match to crystal engineering ↔ molecule to crystals as the whole of crystallization:  Heterogeneous nucleation, polymorphs, cocrystals, morphology control of the pharmaceutical drugs, organic optoelectronics, waveguides. Pharmaceutical crystallization for health care products, process development, and nucleation studies.

Biogenic crystals. biomineralization, bioinspired materials, Function, crystal formation of the purine and pterins in biogenic systems and their eyes. Biogenic crystallization mechanisms. Malaria crystals, Hemozoin crystals formation and reaction with anti-malarial drugs and kidney stone crystals formation.  

Photo and Thermosalient complexes. Structural aspects of novel multi-functional molecular actuator of metal complexes. How does light effect crystals? new smart materials design, artificial molecular actuator materials. Crystals can undergo a variety of locomotion under the light due to [2+2] CAR. I had designed sterile pyridines, ACAC ligands and prepared complexes with Zn/Cu/Ni(II) complexes. These structural complexes showed photo/thermosalient effects, and few showed 2 photon emission are studied in detail.

F-elements crystallization and Ionic Liquids: Exploring the Nature of f-element Soft N- Donor Interactions Using Electronically Tunable Azolate Ionic Liquids. Understanding how f-metal hydrolysis is happening and what the possible intermediates, and their crystal structures. Developing one-pot sustainable crystallization methods.
