Research interests

Subhradip Ghosh is a member of the following research group and research areas:

Research group

Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics

Research areas

Computational materials science, Electronic structure calculations and physics of chemically disordered alloys, magnetic materials, complex oxides, materials in low dimensions.

Computational study of materials for target applications is an emerging field. It acts as a bridge between theoretical formulation and experimental realisation of materials with specific properties. My group is engaged in first-principles computations of properties of materials from their electronic structures. We use Density Functional Theory (DFT) and model Hamiltonians to understand the microscopic origin of physical behaviour in complex materials. The current focus of the group is on magnetic materials for spintronics applications, shape memory properties and magneto-caloric applications; complex oxides with various functionalities and 2D materials for supercapacitors.
