Associate Professor, IISER Mohali Area: Chemical dynamics in condensed phase: Ultrafast spectroscopy and Optical trapping Passion: Science and Science education
IISER Mohali, India
Joined March 2012
Gave a couple of talks on optical & thermal nonlinearities in laser trapping, after a long time:. First at ICNNFT 2025 @iiserbhopal. Then last week at IHPC 2025 @bose_institute. Great to meet old friends & colleagues, and to connect with new ones. @DCS_IISERMOHALI @IiserMohali

teaching how chemical bonds form, in particular explaining to undergrads that it's solely a quantum mechanical phenomenon, is challenging but always fun! 😊 interestingly, in both these pictures, I posed wrongly looking at the other photographer! 😇.@DCS_IISERMOHALI @IiserMohali

my former PhD student @garimabhutani34, who dragged us into the amazing world of red fluorescent proteins, visited yesterday. she's currently a postdoc in Prof Tahei Tahara's lab at @RIKEN_JP, Wako (Japan). @DCS_IISERMOHALI @IiserMohali

We discussed some potential applications of this approach in spectroscopy and beyond, i.e., in quantum computation and quantum information processing. This work is published in the ‘Spotlight on India: Recent Advancements in Light-Matter Interaction’ collection in @JPhysB.

Tuning excited-state population via interfering quantum superposition states, or wavepackets, by a pair of light pulses underpins "action spectroscopy". Here is a theoretical treatise:.@subhomitra_mb @IiserMohali @DCS_IISERMOHALI @JPhysB.via @ioppublishing

Attending any meeting at @iacskolkata, cradle of basic research in India, is always special: though I could make only a 'one and a quarter day' trip, it was wonderful to listen to collegues, and talk about our coherent nonlinear spectroscopy research.@DCS_IISERMOHALI @IiserMohali

It was great to witness the signing an MOU between all the 7 IISERs and @UBuffalo at @IISER_BERHAMPUR.@IiserMohali
IISER Berhampur witnessed the historical moment of signing of MoU by all the 7 IISERs with the University of Buffalo, USA to open a new chapter of cooperation for enriching IISERs from the long experience of UB in maintaining global excellence in research. @EduMinOfIndia

Modifying surface of a chunk of semiconductor is unlikely to alter dynamics of charge carriers produced inside its core but @Samitamishra19 showed this isn't quite true for perovskite microcrystals:.@JPhysChem.@ACSPublications.@DCS_IISERMOHALI.@IiserMohali.

In recent times, lead-free layered double perovskites have drawn considerable attention because of their nontoxic nature, structural stability in ambient conditions, and ability to alter optoelectr...

Dr Kanik Palodhi gave me a tour of their labs, reflecting the passion and dedication with which Prof Manoranjan De, pioneer of optics education in India, established this Dept. Felt ecstatic to see so many meticulous experimental setups, especially this giant integrating sphere!

It was an absolute delight to visit the Dept of Applied Optics & Photonics, @uniOFcalcutta, early this week. I gave a seminar, organized by the @OpticaWorldwide/@SPIEgroup student chapter & Optical Society of India, on our work on optical tweezers. @IiserMohali.@DCS_IISERMOHALI
