Dr. Suresh Rajaputra
obtained his B.Sc (1986), M.Sc
(1988) and Ph.D. (1996) from Osmania University, Hyderabad,
India. His Ph.D. thesis title was "Structure-Property Correlations in
Some Magnetically Ordered Aurivillius
Phases". He worked at the University of
Geneva, Switzerland, Indian Institute of Science and Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for
Advanced Scientific Research, Bangalore, India on various
aspects of oxide materials which include structure, ferroelectric, magnetic
and magneto-transport properties, magnetoelectric
composites, charge ordering, metal-insulator transitions and colossal magnetoresistance, ordered double perovskites
and their structure-property correlations. Presently he is working as a Senior Research
Scientist at the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering,
University of Kentucky. His recent work has focused on fabrication and
characterization of carbon nanotubes, nano-porous
oxide films, nano wires and their applications in
sensors and opto-electronic devices. Apart from
his research into nanoscale materials, he is also involved in project
planning, implementation, grant proposal writing and helping the Director, CeNSE, in the day to day operations of the center
