Dr. Kuntal Ghosh

About

I am a solid-state battery researcher experienced in garnet-based LLZO electrolytes and metal-electrolyte interfaces for lithium metal batteries. During my PhD, I developed scalable synthesis methods, engineered solid electrolyte microstructures, designed stable metal-electrolyte interfaces, and introduced innovative dual (solid-liquid) therapies for room-temperature cell operation, alongside developing dual-polymer-based composite electrolytes. My work provided mechanistic insights into Li-ion transport, dendrite suppression, and interface stabilization.
