Dr. Ashish R. Tanna is an educator and researcher at RK University, Rajkot, India with over 15 years of experience. Dr. Tanna has developed computer software for the determination of cations distribution amongst the tetrahedral (A) and octahedral (B) interstitial sites of spinel compounds using X-ray diffraction intensity analysis which could be a breakthrough development to analyze the spinel oxides. Dr. Tanna has checked the software for the spinel ferrites and presented this work at the International Conference on Computational Physics in Madrid, Spain. He has filed a copyright for the same after receiving a massive response from the material scientists who are working in this field globally. Dr. Tanna has undertaken many research projects and published quite a few research papers/books on international repute. Dr. Tanna has created a couple of low-cost indigenous equipment which are very useful for checking photocatalytic properties of the materials and filed the Indian Patents for those innovations. Dr. Tanna is an expert in synthesizing novel materials through various top-down and bottom-up approaches. Dr. Tanna has been handling high-energy ball milling equipment to produce novel materials by mechanochemistry processing. Recently, a modified auto combustion method was formulated in his laboratory to prepare nanomaterials quite quickly and further two Indian Patents filed for processes of green synthesis and drug coating on function oxide materials.
