iDREAM lab is accelerating the development of smart electronic textiles using nanotechnology. Our group is modifying the surface of polymeric substrates to elucidate the reactivity of the substrates and develop new functionality. We further investigating the substrate-active materials interaction to improve the performance of the fabricated device for sustainable applications. The broader application of the research includes flexible and wearable sensors for body movement monitoring, bio-sensing, thermotherapy and flexible interconnects.
We are also interested in in-situ polymerization and nanoparticle synthesis for multifunctional applications. Sustainable textiles is another focus area we are exploring.
