Dr. Niladri Banerjee

Biography

Niladri Banerjee is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at Imperial College London. His research focuses on atomic-precision growth of materials and advanced electronic magnetic characterization, utilizing methods to develop and understand emergent quantum phases in low-dimensional materials, such as thin films and van der Waals materials. He completed his PhD at the University of Cambridge and subsequently held a postdoctoral research associateship there. Additionally, he was a Junior Research Fellow at Wolfson College, Cambridge. He is an active member of the Steering Committee Group for the 'Atoms to Devices' (A2D) Research Area of the Henry Royce Institute. His innovative research explores how to intentionally modify materials to alter their properties for specific applications, such as doping semiconductors, and he studies the effect of proximity on electronic magnetic properties. His work has significant implications for unconventional superconductivity and ultra-low dissipation computing, and he regularly collaborates with leading research groups across the UK, Europe, India, and the USA. He also makes use of synchrotron facilities, such as the Advanced Light Source at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California.
