He joined TASC Labs, CNR-IOM funded by ICTP, ITALY for postdoctoral research projects from 2013 to 2016 and again in 2017-2018 He joined BUITEMS, department of physics in June 2018. His area of research is microfabrication specially exploiting facility in Clean Room processing and patterning of nano/micro-structures and their characterization at synchrotron radiation source, lithography to develop novel suspended graphene structures, which can be studied in nanospectroscopy beamline and at the same time, tuned/monitored electrically in situ in terms of charge density (by field effect), temperature (by Joule heating) and mobility (by means of charge transport measurements). Furthermore, his expertise are on fabrication of micro-pillar spin tunnel junction devices, Si3N4 membrane and micromechanical fluidic cells
