Anirban Mondal

Anirban Mondal is an Associate Professor at the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar. He joined the theory group at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPIP) as a Postdoctoral Fellow in 2016, focusing on OLED host/guest systems. His research spans organic electronics, molecular modeling for energy applications, and charge transport in organic semiconductors. In 2025, he received the Humboldt Research Fellowship for Experienced Researchers, highlighting his contributions to the field.

Education: Ph.D. in Material Science from Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), India (2013); M.Sc. in Material Science from JNCASR (2013); B.Sc. (Honours) in Chemistry from Visva-Bharati University (2010).

Research interests include design of OLED materials, energy-efficient organic semiconductors, and computational modeling of electronic properties. Key contributions include studies on impurity effects in charge transport, trap-free materials, and phosphor-sensitized fluorescence for OLEDs. His work bridges simulation and experimental data to optimize material performance.

Publications focus on topics like molecular libraries for OLED hosts, electron trapping mechanisms in polymers, and Ohmic contact strategies for high-ionization-energy materials. These studies underscore his interdisciplinary approach to advancing organic electronics.

Scientific awards include the Humboldt Research Fellowship (2025). Collaborations involve MPIP, JNCASR, and international institutions. His lab explores material design, device optimization, and fundamental physics of organic semiconductors.
