Apparao M Rao
Apparao M Rao is currently the Robert A. Bowen Professor of Physics in the department of physics and astronomy, and the director of the Clemson Nanomaterials Center at Clemson University. His research in nanoscience and nanotechnology has been cited over 30,000 in open literature and his h-index is 72.〔()Google Scholar〕 In 2008 and 2011, he was elected as a Fellow of the American Physical Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, respectively. In 2012, he received the Alumni Award for Outstanding Achievements in Research, and has served on the Advisory Panel for the Dean and the Vice-President of Research, Clemson University. His extensive research and development efforts have led to the recent establishment of Clemson Nanomaterials Center, which is stimulating sustainable research and development capacity and competitiveness in the state of South Carolina. The state of SC conferred on him its highest honor - the 2014 Governor’s award for excellence in scientific research.〔() Clemson Newsstand〕 Rao is also an adjunct professor at the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning, India where he initiated a nanomaterials program, and directs research projects of M.S./Ph.D. students. He has served as the chairman and organizer of several international conferences, including the Frontiers in Nano Sci., Tech. & Appl. 2014, Carbon 2010, & Nano 2010.
==Accomplishments==
Rao has developed a broad spectrum of game-changing technologies for spectroscopic characterization of nanocarbon allotropes, novel synthesis methods for controlling the morphologies of carbon nanotubes or CNTs, and scalable nano-manufacturing of CNT-based devices.〔() Eureka Alert 1〕 His research has strongly enhanced the field of carbon science and technology in terms of the discovery of novel phenomena in nanocarbon systems, device development for electronics,〔()India Times〕 photonics,〔() Nanowerk〕 and drug delivery, and is of primary interest to the South Carolina Research Authority. Many of these are seminal works, in particular the (i) photo-induced polymerization of solid C60, (ii) photo-enhanced oxidation of solid C60 (iii) diameter selective Raman scattering from single walled CNTs, and the demonstration that CNTs can be subjected to redox doping for tunable electronic properties, just like graphite, fullerenes and conducting polymers, (iv) synthesis and demonstration of logic functions in branched CNTs, (v) Raman evidence for renormalized electron and phonon energies near a charged defect in doped CNTs, (vi) Raman evidence for phonon bottle necks in single walled CNTs, and (vii) observation of superconductivity in boron doped CNTs.〔() UT Dallas News〕 Notably, his pioneering Raman spectroscopic studies of fullerenes and CNTs have made Raman spectroscopy as an indispensable tool in nanocarbon research. Some of Rao’s other intriguing breakthroughs include the synthesis and measurement of electrical and mechanical properties of nonlinear CNT morphologies, such as branched and helical CNT forms which exploit unique functionality at the nanoscale. Recently, his group demonstrated double decoupling – a new paradigm for thermoelectric devices with a high figure of merit and compatibility factor.〔() Eureka Alert 2〕
