Umamahesh Balijapalli

I am a highly dedicated and skilled optoelectronic synthetic chemist with more than 5 years of research experience in international laboratories in organic optoelectronics including the design, synthesis, purification, characterization of materials, photophysical properties, and device fabrication. I have published extensively in international peer-reviewed journals, with related expertise in organic functional materials for optoelectronic applications. I am well-versed in multi-step organic synthesis and optoelectronic characterization. I also possess excellent written and verbal communication skills that allow me a confident presenter at conferences and possess good leadership skills. I am seeking a challenging research position to utilize my skills and abilities while joining a dynamic research team. My research interests are focused on the development of innovative organic and organometallic materials for optoelectronic devices such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic semiconducting laser diodes (OSLDs), Organic solar cells (OSCs), photovoltaics (OPVs), thin-film transistors (OFETs) and molecular sensors. I would like to be one of the potential contributors in the field of cutting-edge organic semiconductors field. In the future, I would like to lead a world-class research group with an interest in sustainable energy research, which includes optoelectronic devices, perovskite solar cells, sensors, and lasers.
