Conversation with Arindam Ghosh

Bio from his website :

Arindam Ghosh is a Professor at the Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Science. He did his PhD at the Indian Institute of Science on probing metal-insulator transition and Coulomb interaction effect in doped semiconductors in 2000, following which he worked in Cambridge University, UK, as a post doctoral researcher. His current research interests include the transport properties of two-dimensional electronic systems in semiconductors, carbon-based low-dimensional systems, optoelectronic properties of atomically-thin semiconductor membranes, magnetic nanostructures, and structural stability of nanoscale systems such as metallic nanowires and nanoparticles. The technical expertise of his research group lies in detection and measurement of ultra-low level electrical signals, and wideband “noise” measurements down to milli-Kelvin temperatures.

In this episode we discussed :

• his biography – how he became an experimental physicist
• his career trajectory and his research experiences
• his current interests in quantum technology and quantum materials
• specific aspects of his research over the years
• thoughts on Indian science and technology and related policy
• segment in Bengali
• plans for future work

Listen, as we humanize science….
