BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2023 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Moungi G. Bawendi, Louis E. Brus and Alexei I. Ekimov “for the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots.”

In the early 1980s, this year’s chemistry laureates Louis Brus and Alexei Ekimov succeeded in creating – independently of each other – quantum dots, which are nanoparticles so tiny that quantum effects determine their characteristics. #NobelPrize

Chemsymphoria 23' started off with vibrant talks from faculties and students. Chemsymphoria is an in-house symposium of Chemistry Department, IISER Pune, and this year, it is time our 2019 PhD batch. IISER Pune CHEMIISERP

Day 1 of Chemsymphoria 2023 at IISER Pune. To amazing talks by all the faculties and students!! IISER Pune CHEMIISERP

Day 2 of Chemsymphoria 23' started off with vibrant talks from faculties and students. Chemsymphoria is an in-house symposium of Chemistry Department, IISER Pune. IISER Pune CHEMIISERP Siddhesh Kamat @Vanshikajain96 Umashis Bhoi

My first publication!!! Thank you sir Pramod Pillai for this amazing opportunity and for your constant support and guidance. A special thanks to @Vanshikajain96 for making this project such a fun learning experience.

Our work on an artificial photosynthetic system powered by InP QD for the perpetual synthesis of chemicals is out in ACS Catalysis. Effective shuttling of redox cofactors between light & dark cycles was the key. Congrats Indra Narayan Chakraborty, Vanshika & Pradyut pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Plasmonic NPs are usually poor solar-to-electricity converters. We say they aren’t; not using electrons, but with plasmonic heat. We have developed plasmon-powered STEGs with a record efficiency of ~11.5%. Now out in Nano Letters. Congrats Radha Krishna Kashyap pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

MS thesis work of AJINKYA SHINGOTE got published. Supported by Taniya Taniya and Parikshit Rajput. Thermal Evolution of the Structure and Luminescence of the Hybrid-Cation-Stabilized [(4AMTP)PbBr2]2PbBr4 Layered Perovskite | Chemistry of Materials pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

We continue our efforts in developing all-InP QD based light harvesters. This time we show ‘ligand-directed FRET process’ between green and red emitting InP QDs in solution and solid states - now out in Applied Physics Letters. Congrats @Mr_Lumens & Adhra Sury pubs.aip.org/aip/apl/articl…

We have developed Cu nanoparticles with excellent stability & light-to-heat energy conversion efficiency, for plasmon-driven high-temperature studies.The work is out in Chemical Science. Congratulations to Shreya Tyagi Radha Krishna Kashyap Ankit Dhankhar pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Physics to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.”

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

Introducing ansiotropic Au-Rh superstructures for plasmonic photocatalysis. A site-selective growth of Rh islands on AuNRs boosts the photoregeneration of biological cofactors. Now out in Chemistry of Materials. Congratulations Ankit Dhankhar shorturl.at/WKFzr
