Prof. Dr. Mohammad Mansoob Khan | Universiti Brunei Darussalam (original) (raw)

Dr. Mohammad Mansoob Khan is a Professor of Inorganic Chemistry and Nanotechnology at Chemical Sciences, Faculty of Sciences, Universiti Brunei Darussalam, Brunei Darussalam.

At present, Prof. Khan is working in the cutting-edge area of nanochemistry, nanosciences, and nanotechnology, especially in the field of inorganic nanohybrid materials such as synthesis of gold, silver nanoparticles, nanocomposites, and band gap engineering of semiconductors (metal oxide, chalcogenides, etc.). Their applications in hydrogen production, photocatalysis, photoelectrodes, sensors, peroxidase mimics, and solar cells.

Prof. Khan is also working on the synthesis of graphene, graphene-based nanocomposites, Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), and g-C3N4-based nanocomposites for various novel applications.

Prof. Khan has about 225 publications in international peer-reviewed journals, conference proceedings, books, and book chapters with more than 16,500 citations with 62 h-index and 140 i10-index. Prof. Khan also got 05 Patents (4 Korean & 1 Brunei) and had the opportunity to address conferences as a Keynote speaker (10 talks) and delivered Invited talks (15 talks). Reviewers of ~09 dozens of International journals.
