About

Niravkumar J. Joshi is a physicist, having completed his doctorate at the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, India. He is Marie-Curie experienced researcher at the University of Barcelona, Spain. He has published more than 37 articles in specialized journals, fifteen book chapters, and three books (Springer and Elsevier). These papers received about 2445 citations (h = 25) on Google Scholar, data for June 2023. He has postdoctoral experience in South Korea, Brazil, and the University of California Berkeley, USA, where he developed selective and sensitive microsensors by MEMS techniques. His present research focuses on plasmonic gas sensors using 2D materials. He is a core reviewer for several prestigious journals like Nano letters, ACS Applied Material Interfaces, Advanced Functional Materials, Nature Scientific Reports, Sensors and Actuators B, etc. He had worked as a Guest Editor for Special Issues in the Journal of Nanoscience & Nanotechnology and Sensor Letters. He has edited two Books: Functional Nanomaterials - Advances in Gas Sensing Technologies (Springer Publisher) and Silicon-Based Hybrid Nanoparticles (Elsevier Publisher). He is a member of the Editorial Team-PLOS one, Defence Technology, SN Applied Science (Springer), Journal of Sensors (Hindawi), and Sensor Letters. He was awarded twice by the Electrical Research and Development Association (ERDA), India, for the Best R&D Award and the Marie-Curie Seal of Excellence by the European Commission (H2020-MSCA-IF-2020).
