ABOUT US 

We are a group (feelings is like a family) who believes in hard work, sincerity, discipline. We enjoy our work and have a lot of fun in each of our group activities.

We are working on various research topics in nanomagnetism and spintronics viz.

  • Magnetic domains and domain wall dynamics

  • Superferromagnetism,

  • Magnetic Antidot Lattices (MALs)

  • Antiferromagnetic Spintronics

  • Topological Insulators

  • Flexible spintronics

  • Skyrmionics in thin films

  • Organic spintronics

  • Ferrimagnetic spintronics

  • Spin Pumping via Inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE).

We are always committed to contribute to the scientific community by our novel work.

We have published about 100 papers in different international journals of high repute like

Phys. Rev. Lett.; Phys. Rev. Applied, Phys. Rev. B; NPG Asia materials; ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces; Nanoscale; Scientific reports; Appl. Phys. Lett.; J. Mater. Chem. C; Advanced Quantum Technology; ACS Applied Nano Materials; J. Phys. Chem. C; Nanotechnology; Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys.; J. Appl. Phys., J. Phys. D- Appl. Phys., J. Magn. Magn. Mater., RSC advance, etc.

 

Our alumni

  • Seven Ph.D students have already graduated (now postdocs at IIT Delhi; Université Paris-Saclay, France, THALES, France; University of Turin etc). Two Former PhD students Dr. Sougata Mallick and Dr. Srijani Mallik have recently joined SRM Institute of Science and Technology as faculty. Another former PhD student Dr. Koustuv Roy is working as an Assistant Professor Acharya Prafulla Chandra Roy Government College, West Bengal.

  • Sixteen M.Sc. students have performed their final year MSc thesis (now working at several good places like University of California, USA; Università degli Studi di Torino, Italy; Kansas State University, USA; Martin Luther Universität Halle Wittenberg, Halle, Germany; Michigan State University, USA; University of New Mexico, USA; Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Germany etc.)

 

Present Group: 3 post docs, 7 PhD students, 1 Int. PhD and 3 M.Sc. students.

Opportunities: Highly motivated students (both masters and PhD) and postdocs are always encouraged to join and work in our group.
