About
Hari Nair obtained his PhD in experimental condensed matter from Indian Institute of Science in 2009. Afterwards he has worked at Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH, Germany, University of Johannesburg, South Africa and Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO. In 2017, he joined University of Texas at El Paso as an Assistant Professor. Nair's major research focus is experimental study of structure and dynamics of atoms and spins in complex oxide materials using X-rays and neutrons. Nair has strong experience in measurement and data interpretation of physical properties of periodic solids, detailed analysis of X-ray and neutron diffraction data, inelastic scattering. Nair is greatly interested in the fundamental properties of quantum magnets, multiferroics and energy storage materials. Nair has authored 74 international peer-reviewed articles till 2022 and a book chapter on frustrated magnets as magnetocalorics. He has a h-index of 18 and citations 1054 as of 2022.
