Sankaran Ramesh
I am an Assistant Professor at the Centre for Interdisciplinary and Convergent Technologies, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
I am interested in the emergence of quantum optical and photophysical functionality from structural organisation in hybrid nanoscale systems, observed in real time using ultrafast optical spectroscopy. You can find more on Research Page
At ATDC, I build optical spectroscopy capabilities and pursue collaborative research in quantum photonics & nano materials towards novel optoelectronic and photonic devices. Before joining IIT-KGP, I worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Chemical Physics Division, Lund University, Sweden with Tönu Pullerits.
I completed my Ph.D. from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, where I worked with Tze Chien Sum.
