Arnab Sarkar

Dr. Arnab Sarkar is a Postdoctoral Researcher at IMDEA Nanociencia in the Ultrafast Science of Quantum Materials group. He joined in July 2023 after completing his doctoral thesis titled "Classical Discrete Time Crystal" at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur.

• Education: MSc from Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (2015-2017), BSc from Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira (2012-2017)

His research focuses on mechanical properties of nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), with a specific emphasis on classical discrete time crystals. This work bridges quantum materials, condensed matter physics, and nanoscale dynamics.

Dr. Sarkar utilizes ultrafast spectroscopy techniques to investigate quantum material properties at the nanoscale. His research has potential applications in quantum information processing and novel nanomechanical devices.
