Sayan Bhattacharyya is a solid state chemist whose research interests span nanoscience, optoelectronic materials and catalysis for energy conversion and storage. His group focuses on understanding structure–property correlations in functional materials, particularly quantum dots and low-dimensional hybrid perovskites for optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications. His research also explores electrocatalysis using metal alloy systems for green hydrogen and ammonia production, as well as carbon dioxide reduction.
Professor Bhattacharyya received his Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, India, in 2006. Following postdoctoral research at Bar-Ilan University (2006–2008) and Drexel University (2008–2010), he joined the Department of Chemical Sciences at Indian Institute of Science Education & Research (IISER) Kolkata as an Assistant Professor in April 2010. He is currently a Full Professor and also served as the founding Chair of the Centre for Advanced Functional Materials at IISER Kolkata. |
He is the recipient of the Science and Engineering Research Board – Science and Technology Award for Research (SERB-STAR), the Chirantan Rasayan Sanstha (CRS) Silver Star Medal, and the Chemical Research Society of India (CRSI) Bronze Medal. He currently serves on the Editorial Advisory Boards of Journal of Materials Chemistry A, Small Methods and ACS Applied Energy Materials, and is also an Editorial Board Member of Scientific Reports and the Indian Journal of Chemistry.
| “It is a great honor and an exciting opportunity to join the Editorial Board. Having published our first paper in Nanoscale in 2016, I am delighted to contribute more actively to the continued growth and development of the journals. I look forward to supporting and promoting high-quality research in nanoscale science and technology, especially innovative materials for energy and sustainability, for the benefit of the broader scientific community.” – Sayan Bhattacharyya |
