Research background

My research background began with a focus on nanoscience during my bachelor’s studies. In my master’s thesis, I specialized in condensed matter physics, where I investigated optically induced magnon propagation in a ferrimagnet. During my PhD, I worked on spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy (SP-STM) of antiferromagnetic ultra-thin films, imaging collinear, non-collinear, and non-coplanar spin structures at the nanometer scale.

Academic background

Since 2026: Postdoc at IPCMS

2021-2025: Marie-Curie PhD (SPEAR-ITN) in Physics, University of Hamburg, Germany.

2019-2021: TopMaster in Nanoscience, Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials, University of Groningen, the Netherlands

2015-2019: B.Tech in Materials Science/Nanotech, UPES Dehradun, India

Current researches

Now, in my postdoc, I am working with Laurent Limot to extract more information from exotic spin structures using a Nickelocene molecule attached to a STM tip.
