Vineet Kumar Rai is Professor of Physics at the Indian Institute of Technology at Dhanbad (India). Professor Rai holds a Ph.D. in Physics from Banaras Hindu University. He worked as a Research Associate at the same university, and a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the Federal University of Pernambuco (Brazil). Professor Rai's main interest is in the synthesis and optical characterization of lanthanides-activated advanced materials, including the upconversion spectroscopy of rare earth ions doped advanced optical materials and their applications.
Photon upconversion technology using nanoparticles is explained from first principles right up to novel and future applications in imaging, sensing, catalysis, energy technology, biomedicine, and many other areas.
