Kushal Samanta

Kushal Samanta works in materials chemistry, combining computational modeling (such as density functional theory, or DFT) with experimental crystal structure analysis to study nanocrystals, quantum dots, and self-assembling molecular structures. Recent work spans nanocrystal surface chemistry for light-emitting materials, supramolecular assemblies built from peptides and metal-organic cages, and screening of new materials for optoelectronic and catalytic applications. The research blends computational prediction with structural characterization techniques like X-ray diffraction.

Publication output has grown notably since 2017, peaking in 2023 with over a decade high, and has remained relatively active through 2024-2026 with a few publications each year.
