Congratulations Mr. Saptarshi Chakraborty  for successfully defending his Ph.D thesis. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

Our recent work based on investigation of dopant-induced structural perturbations using extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy and ultrafast charge carrier dynamics using femtosecond transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy in CdS QDs with everal different TM ions (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu) is now published in Chemistry of Materials.

Dr. Pradeep Kodimana Ramakrishnan receives Walter Benjamin Grant of the German
Research Foundation:

The German Research Foundation awards Dr.Pradeep Kodimana Ramakrishnan, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Duisburg-Essen, the Walter Benjamin Grant. The Walter Benjamin Programme enables postdoctoral researchers at an early career phase who are associated with a German research institution or work there, to conduct independently a research project of their choice and to benefit from additional career-promoting conditions. The award finances the position for two years while the host institution covers additional project needs. The prize is named after Walter Benjamin, a German philosopher and cultural critic, who lived from 1892-1940. 

Our Recent Work based on Study of the Interface and Radial Dopant Position in Semiconductor Heterostructures Using X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy  is now published in "Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters "
