Arka Bandyopadhyay

Dr. Arka Bandyopadhyay is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics, Julius-Maximilians-University Würzburg, Germany, since 2024. His research focuses on predicting topological behavior in material systems through computational methods.

• Education
  • Ph.D., University of Calcutta (2022)

He specializes in theoretical condensed matter physics, leveraging Density Functional Theory (DFT) for realistic material property calculations and developing minimal tight-binding model Hamiltonians to explore quantum systems governed by real-space decimation techniques.

His prior affiliations include:

• IISc-IoE Postdoctoral Fellow (2022–2024)
• Research Associate at Indian Institute of Science (2021–2022)

His work aligns with the Sangiovanni Group, focusing on computational quantum materials and topology-driven material design.

• Scientific Awards
  • IISc-IoE Postdoctoral Fellow
