Professor Singh is dedicated to advancing terahertz (THz) science and technology through the development of cutting-edge photonic, electronic, spintronic, and orbitronic devices. By leveraging new quantum, topological, and semiconductor materials, his work aims to revolutionize on-chip technologies for future 6G to XG wireless communications, quantum sensors, and solid-state displays. His research also delves into the ultrafast terahertz dynamics of Dirac and Weyl materials, striving to deepen our understanding of their physics and enable the creation of high-performance micro-nano-quantum devices.

His expertise encompasses:

THz devices for future 6G to XG wireless
Silicon topological photonics
Hybrid THz on-chip electronic-photonic devices
High-Tc superconductors: quantum detectors, superinductors, and metamaterials
Topological and quantum materials and devices
Ultrafast THz spintronics and orbitronics
Electric field-controllable spintronic THz devices
2D antiferromagnets and ferromagnets
Phase change material photonics

He has co-authored over 225 scientific publications and received notable recognition for his pioneering work in terahertz metamaterial devices, including his election as a Fellow of OPTICA (OSA). Additionally, he has been honored as a top 1% highly cited researcher in Physics by Web of Science – Clarivate in 2020, 2022, and 2023.
