Rajeev Ahuja

Rajeev Ahuja is a Professor at the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Uppsala University, specializing in Materials Theory. His research spans computational materials science with a focus on superconductivity, hydrogen storage, and 2D materials for energy and electronic applications.

• Current affiliations: Uppsala University
• Key research areas: Condensed matter physics, thermoelectrics, battery materials, and photocatalysis

His recent work explores topological states in 2D materials, sensor design using boron rings, and adsorption behaviors of MXenes for biomedical and environmental applications. Collaborative studies with international teams have produced high-impact publications on superconducting hydrides and strain-engineered nanomaterials.

Emerging trends in his publications reveal increasing emphasis on twisted heterostructures, transition metal oxides, and environmental remediation via boron nitride and graphene-based systems. Research also extends to planetary material physics (Jupiter/Saturn interiors) and biocompatible nanomaterials.
