Arindam Ghosh is an Indian experimental condensed matter physicist and a professor in the Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India.
[2][3] Ghosh obtained his BSc degree with physics honours from St. Xaviers College, Kolkata which was then part of the Calcutta University (1991).
He was then a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Cambridge, UK (2000–2005).
In December 2020, he received the Infosys Prize for Physical Sciences for his development of atomically thin two-dimensional semiconductors to build a new generation of functional electronic, thermoelectric and optoelectronic devices.
[2][3] 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.
