Redlen Technologies Inc.
Saketh Kakkireni's work experience includes their role as an R&D- Growth and Materials engineer at Redlen Technologies Inc. since 2021. Prior to this, they worked as a Graduate Research Assistant at Washington State University from 2015 to 2020. During their time there, they performed bulk-crystal growths of CdZnTe/CdTe, demonstrated seeding in the melt growth of CdZnTe, conducted thermal modeling of crystal-growth systems, and built custom setups for electron-lifetime and resolution measurements of thick CdZnTe crystals. Saketh also developed a chemical polishing setup to prepare MBE grade CdZnTe substrates.
Saketh's earlier experience includes an internship at the Nuclear Fuel Complex - Government Of India in 2013. During this internship, they worked on the design of an automated storage and retrieval system for nuclear fuel rods and zirconium tubes loaded with uranium pellets. Saketh'scontribution included modifying the tray design to accommodate more tubes in a row and adding metal spacers to prevent deformation and damage during transportation.
Saketh Kakkireni completed a Bachelor of Technology (BTech) degree in Mechanical Engineering from VNR Vignanajyothi Institute of Engineering & Technology, with a duration of study from 2010 to 2014. Following this, Saketh pursued a Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Washington State University, which lasted from 2014 to 2016. Finally, Saketh continued their academic journey at Washington State University, obtaining a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree in Mechanical Engineering between 2017 and 2020.
