Research  Interest

Dr. Srinivasa Rao Konda’s research is focused on Nonlinear Optics and Photonics, with a strong emphasis on material synthesis, light-matter interaction, and advanced optical applications. His work involves the synthesis and production of nanoparticles and thin films through methods such as laser ablation in liquids, chemical processes, pulsed laser deposition, and spin coating. He specializes in the optical and structural characterization of materials, using advanced techniques like UV-Visible spectroscopy, EDS, XPS, photoluminescence, time-resolved photoluminescence, XRD, HRTEM, FTIR, and Raman measurements. In the realm of nonlinear optics, Dr. Konda investigates third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties and carrier dynamics using Z-scan and time-resolved pump-probe methods, while exploring the generation of terahertz (THz) radiation through optical rectification in NLO crystals, 2D materials, and air plasma filamentation.

Dr. Konda’s work also delves into the applications of terahertz radiation, particularly through terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDs) and time-resolved THz spectroscopy to examine quantum materials. Additionally, he is involved in the development of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light sources and attosecond pulses, generated via higher-order harmonics using laser-induced plasmas from quantum materials. His expertise in light-matter interaction includes the fabrication of micro/nanostructures for optical and photonics applications, the creation of superhydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces for anticorrosion uses, and the study of pulsed laser-material interaction. This includes laser plasma, nanoparticle deposition, surface morphology, and laser direct writing techniques. Furthermore, Dr. Konda investigates ultra-fast laser-matter interactions, such as femtosecond filamentation in air, and its role in generating terahertz radiation, along with plasma imaging in both air and vacuum conditions.
