Working in the area of technique development in multi- dimensional NMR Spectroscopy and their appplications in the study of biomolecules. Also interested in study of relaxation as applied to dynamics of molecules in solution and internal motions in solids.Have contributed to the development of many two-dimensional NMR experi- ments including the first experiment, and several later. Have applied these methods for the study of biomolecules especially the first application of 2D Nuclear Overhanser Effect to biomolecules.Have also applied these techniques to study molecules oriented in liquid crystal matrices. Have extensively studied the effect of strong coupling in 2D spectroscopy including in 1D double resonance techniques. Currently studying effect of Cross-Correlations in multispin relaxation and its effects in study of biomolecules, and solids. Also interested in NMR Imaging.
Current Interest is also in Quantum Computing by NMR in which the group has used transition and spin-selective pulses in one and two dimensional NMR to (i) prepare pseudo-pure states (ii) execute logical gates and (iii) implement Deutsch-Jozse quantum algorithm. Efforts are going on to increase the number of qubits by use of quadrupolar and dipolar coupled spins oriented in liquid crystal matrices.
