Arpan Das

Arpan has obtained his Ph.D. degree from JNCASR, Bangalore in April, 2024 under the supervision of Prof. Shobhana Narasimhan. Thesis title: "Density Functional Theory Calculations of Doped, Alloyed, and Heterostructure Systems". 

Research area: 

(i) Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations of metal surfaces, metal atoms deposited on metal surfaces, compare the superstructures with the LEED experiments and simulations of ARPES data. 

(ii) Structural, electronic, magnetic, vibrational and photoluminescence properties of pristine and doped halide perovskite materials using DFT. 

(iii) Optical properties of halide perovskites using DFT. 

(iv) Electronic and magnetic properties of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formed at the interface of different oxide perovskites using DFT. 

Dr. Devina Sharma

Research Interest:

Devina's research focuses on DFT calculations of organic molecules on surfaces, as well as on defects found in two-dimensional materials.
