Short CV

Hailing from West Bengal, India, Tanweer earned a Bachelor of Science (BSc) with Physics honors in 2011 from the University of Calcutta’s Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira College.

He obtained an PhD (integrated masters+PhD) in experimental condensed matter physics in 2019 from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore, in the group of Prof. Arindam Ghosh. Here, his research focused on electronic transport, light-matter interactions, interfacial stress fields, and structural polymorphism in van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures of atomically thin 2D layered materials (2DLMs). His work resulted in 13 peer-reviewed publications in the top tier journals

In October 2020, he moved to University of Cambridge, UK, as a Research Associate in the group of Prof. Andrea Ferrari. Here, he collaborated with leading experts in 2DLMs and vdW heterostructures. His research contributed to advancements in electronic transport in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) crystals achieving room-temperature electron mobility > 300 cm2V-1s-1. He was also actively involved in large-scale European projects, including Graphene Flagship and EPSRC-funded initiatives.

He is currently part of CIC nanoGUNE’s Nanodevices group (since June 2022), led by Prof. Luis Hueso and Prof. Felix Casanova. He is focusing on utilizing the topological properties of 2DLMs to tune nonlinear anomalous Hall effects and unidirectional magnetoresistance for spintronics applications. He was awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowship pursuing research in this direction.
