At the Materials Research Lab at IIT Jammu, we are engineering the future of energy storage through materials innovation. Our focus is on creating cutting-edge materials, from high-entropy oxides, Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) to Prussian blue analogues. We target critical challenges in batteries and supercapacitors to build safer, higher-density, and long-lasting systems for sustainable energy solutions.
