Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Hydrogen

His scientific interests lie mostly in Crystallography, Crystal structure, Phosphor, Inorganic chemistry and Luminescence. His Crystallography study combines topics in areas such as Electron diffraction, Diffraction and Nitride. His work on Rietveld refinement as part of general Crystal structure study is frequently connected to Dicyanamide, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

His Phosphor research includes elements of Light-emitting diode and Quantum efficiency. He combines subjects such as Nitrogen, Europium, Adduct, Molecule and Solid-state chemistry with his study of Inorganic chemistry. His Luminescence research incorporates elements of Triclinic crystal system, Doping, Band gap and Coordination number.

His most cited work include:

  • Narrow-band red-emitting Sr[LiAl3N4]:Eu2+ as a next-generation LED-phosphor material (777 citations)
  • Melem (2,5,8-triamino-tri-s-triazine), an important intermediate during condensation of melamine rings to graphitic carbon nitride: synthesis, structure determination by X-ray powder diffractometry, solid-state NMR, and theoretical studies. (649 citations)
  • Highly efficient all‐nitride phosphor‐converted white light emitting diode (521 citations)
