YOUNG CAREER AWARD IN NANO SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 2020

May 7, 2020

IIT Bombay Professor Saurabh Lodha has received the Young Career Award in Nano Science & Technology for the year 2020 for Advanced Transistor Technologies.

About:

The award has been instituted by the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Govt. of India.
This award recognises his pioneering contributions in the development of logic transistor technologies beyond silicon and nanoelectronic devices based on two-dimensional Van der Waals materials.
The ultra-thin (less than a nm thick) nature of these Van der Waals materials, analogous to graphene, bestows them with extraordinary optical and electronic properties along with high mechanical flexibility.
