Bibhu Prasad Swain is currently an associate professor at the department of physics, National Institute of Technology (NIT) Manipur, India. He obtained his B.Sc. Physics (Hons.) from Utkal University, Bhubaneswar, and M.Sc. (Physics), M.Tech. (Materials Science), and Ph.D. from NIT Rourkela, Barkatullah University, and Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Bombay, respectively. His primary areas of research interests include high bandgap semiconductors thin films for device applications, biocompatibility coating for artificial heart valve coating and stent applications, silicon and carbon-based alloys of nanostructured materials, and titanium nitride-based mechanical challenging coating applications. He has published more than 125 papers in respected national and international journals. Dr. Swain received the Japan Society of Promotion of the Science (JSPS) Fellow at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, National Research Foundation Fellowship Universityof Cape Town, and Brain Korea 21 Fellowship Seoul National University. He is also listed in top 2% Indian scientist in the world by Stanford University for the year 2020.
