About
I am Professor Chandan Upadhyay, a faculty member in the School of Materials Science and Technology at the Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi. My contributions encompass research, teaching, and academic leadership. I completed my Master’s degree in Physics at Banaras Hindu University in 1998 and earned my PhD in Physics from the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur in 2004. Following my doctoral studies, I pursued post-doctoral research in Europe at institutions including UMR-7564 CNRS, University of Nancy1 in France, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz in Germany, and Forschungszentrum Jülich in Germany.
My research focuses on quantum materials, ferroic and multiferroic systems, magnetism in low-dimensional materials, multifunctional materials, and the magnetic and electronic properties of nanostructures. I lead investigations into the synthesis, characterization, and physical behavior of nanoparticles and quantum-correlated systems, aiming to deepen our fundamental understanding while exploring potential applications.
I have authored numerous peer-reviewed publications and hold patents in advanced material synthesis. My work integrates experimental and computational techniques to address key challenges in condensed matter and materials science. I am passionate about mentoring students and advancing collaborative research initiatives at both national and international levels
