Dr. Subramaniam's research interests center on analytical, numerical, and experimental investigations of non-equilibrium phenomena. These phenomena occur in reacting fluids or plasmas (ionized gases) or when laser beams interact with materials. Applications of his work include materials synthesis and processing, manufacturing of thin films and devices, and propulsion systems. Current research focus is on fundamental studies of Coulomb solids in plasmas and their uses for synthesis, manipulation, and in-situ study of single-walled carbon nanotubes.
