Srikrishna Sagar’s primary role at NREL is to design, fabricate, and characterize the memory devices using transition-metal coordination complexes. Sagar is focused on achieving low-power switching, followed by probing the charge transport mechanism behind the conductance and/or capacitance switching properties. He’s utilizing the spectrochemical technique to understand the distinct oxidation states and variations in absorbance observed within the complexes to correlate with the obtained current-voltage characteristics obtained from the fabricated two-terminal crossbar molecular devices. His research interests include molecular switching devices, oscillators, and photodetectors.
