My research interests include the applications and development of terahertz spectroscopy techniques with particular emphasis on the study of ultrafast charge transport in semiconductors, spin injection in semiconductors, surface and interface non-linear optics as well as low frequency vibrations of biomolecular systems. I am also focusing on exploring uses of THz radiation in other disciplines such as biology, astronomy, conservation of objects with cultural value, medicine and industry.
