The Department of Chemistry, School of Natural Sciences, hosted a fascinating colloquium titled “From Layered Lattices to Luminous Possibilities of Halide Perovskites” by Professor Sayan Bhattacharyya from IISER Kolkata on 5 November 2025, from 12:00 – 1:00 PM at C021.

Champions of the World 💙🇮🇳 I’ve seen this dream for over two decades, to watch the Indian women lift that World Cup trophy. Tonight, that dream finally came true. From the heartbreak of 2005 to the fight of 2017, every tear, every sacrifice, every young girl who picked up a

A spectacular win by the Indian team in the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 Finals. Their performance in the final was marked by great skill and confidence. The team showed exceptional teamwork and tenacity throughout the tournament. Congratulations to our players. This

𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃 🇮🇳🏆 India clinch their maiden Women’s @cricketworldcup title at #CWC25 🤩

Champions! Har chauke har wicket, apne Jajbe se poore desh ka dil jeet liya! Proud of our World Champion girls 🇮🇳 What a victory. @ImHarmanpreet Kaur aur unki team ne poori generation ko sapna de diya jeetne ka, ladne ka, chamakne ka! 🇮🇳 #CWC25

1983 inspired an entire generation to dream big and chase those dreams. 🏏 Today, our Women’s Cricket Team has done something truly special. They have inspired countless young girls across the country to pick up a bat and ball, take the field and believe that they too can lift

Grateful to the APC 2025 organizers (Asian and Oceanian Photochemistry Conference) for invitation. Great to meet and exchange ideas with many leading speakers. 👏 Kudos to the team for warm hospitality. Already excited for the next APC!

Phosphorescence may conceal the solution to organic triplet harvesting in solvents. What if this single pathway could transform research? Discover the answer in our forthcoming article following the work below. #TripletHarvesting #Innovation https://t.co/hHudGxswp9

Dr. Ray, Research Advisor, proudly congratulates Mr. Raktim Deka, his seventh doctoral scholar, on the successful defense of his thesis during today’s viva-voce examination at the Department of Chemistry, Shiv Nadar Institution of Eminence. He gratefully acknowledges the esteemed

Happy 79th Independence Day!

More than a decade of research to afford highly effective thermostable 'biosimilar' human insulin analogs. Looking forward to suitable industry partners for further (clinical) development of this commercially viable essential hormone. Join hands with us and @IITKanpur

Organic molecules can have multiple photo-accessible spin manifolds? In our paper in @NatureChemistry we show how you can read and write spin-dependent information in a unique organic molecule using photons! https://t.co/U0zdNJDGHe Next up: Room Temperature control!😉

Harshini Dhara (BSc Chemistry) has earned a Master’s fellowship for the two-year international program at the Cluster of Excellence RESOLV, Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany. She will now pursue her dream course—Molecular Sciences: Spectroscopy and Simulation (iMOS). Best wishes!

Dr. Ray proudly announces that a groundbreaking work reveals, for the first time, how a covalently linked, twisted donor–acceptor array in a cyclic form emits deep-blue photons through Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence (TADF)—perfect for next-generation light conversion.

We show how photoredox catalysis can bypass Kasha’s rule, enabling reactions from higher excited states. This work, led by the exceptional @BjornPfund, offers new insights into photochemical reactivity. Published in @J_A_C_S: https://t.co/4waiPatQKZ

Dr. Ray has joined the Editorial Board of Communications Chemistry (Nature Portfolio). He looks forward to shaping the journal, supporting bold research, and sparking fresh ideas across chemistry and materials science. https://t.co/bUDxWLEIx1 https://t.co/1zWfpzP2uB

New from @Debdas_snu and colleagues: 'Charge transfer alteration and white light emission in photochromic triphenylamine-norbornadiene-triazine switch' #OpenAccess 🔓 https://t.co/Za116Vg42o

Second consecutive ChemCommun reveals, for the first time, how a photo-switch can reversibly alter its charge-transfer route—through-bond or through-space—to produce white-light emission. Congratulations to the authors! @ChemCommun @snuchemistry https://t.co/3FuNfXVXuM

Thanks @IISERPune @AvHStiftung and all my well wishers.
