About
L. M. Kukreja is a pioneering researcher in laser-based materials processing and additive manufacturing, with a core focus on shape memory alloys and nanostructured thin films. His most influential work investigates the composition-dependent development of Ni–Ti shape memory alloys using laser additive manufacturing, a contribution that has garnered 147 citations and advanced the production of smart, responsive materials for biomedical and aerospace applications. Kukreja also introduced a novel nano-architecture for ZnO thin films on semiconductor wafers (Si, GaAs, InP) via laser molecular beam epitaxy, targeting applications in nano-robotic device fabrication. This work, though less cited, demonstrates his breadth in exploring laser–material interactions for precision engineering. His research bridges fundamental materials science with practical device fabrication, impacting fields from robotics to microelectronics. Kukreja’s achievements reflect a career dedicated to harnessing laser technology for creating advanced functional materials, with his shape memory alloy work standing as a benchmark in the field.
