I work in the area of quantum transport theory. I am basically interested in the physics and simulation of non-equilibrium phenomena in a variety of nanoscale systems. Expertise in microscopic simulation of non-equilibrium phenomena will play a crucial role not only in the research and design of emerging electronic and spintronic devices, but also in diverse areas such as biological systems. Our simulations are based on the Boltzmann transport equation, Non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism, and the many body density matrix formalism, depending on the regime of application, in order to address a large class of problems encompassing electron, spin, and energy transport. Current efforts include:

• Advanced Logic and Memory Functionalities

Exploring novel logic and memory functionalities, both charge and spin based. Some of the current applications include phase change memories, spin transfer torque for magnetic RAM.
