High Entropy Materials / Materials Horizons: From Nature to Nanomaterials (PDF)

Engineering at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India, in 2010. He has worked as Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Canada, before joining as Assistant Professor at IIT Kanpur in 2012. He has established the Microstructure-Texture-Stress Laboratory at IIT Kanpur and is presently carrying out research in the broad domain of crystallographic texture, mechanical behaviour of materials and materials processing. His current research interests include in situ experiments using electron backscatter diffraction, synchrotron and neutron diffraction, complex concentrated alloys and additive manufacturing. He is Recipient of the Young Metallurgist of the Year award and the INSA medal for young scientist and is working towards establishing high throughput experimentation facilities towards rapid prototyping of materials and processes for structural applications.



Dr. Tanmoy Maiti is Associate Professor in the Department of Material Science and Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, India. Dr. Maiti received his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, USA, in December 2007. Prior to joining IIT Kanpur, he did his postdoctoral research in Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and Pennsylvania State University. He received "PK KelkarYoung Faculty Research Fellowship" from IIT Kanpur for outstanding research. Dr. Maiti is also Recipient of the IEI Young Engineers Award, India. He has been featured in Journal of Materials Research focus issue on "2019 Early Career Scholars in Materials Science". His research interests span the areas of thermoelectrics, plasmonics, photovoltaics and oxide electronic materials and devices. However, a common thread in his research is to address the global energy problem by developing novel materials for clean energy generation and the design of next generation chip-scale technology based on nanophotonics and nanoelectronics.
