Biography

Dr. Das was appointed as an Assistant Professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics (ESM) and member of the Materials Research Institute (MRI) and the Intercollege Graduate Degree Program in Materials Science and Engineering at Penn State University in January 2016. He received his B.Eng. degree (2007) in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering from Jadavpur University, India, and Ph.D. degree (2013) in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Purdue University. Before joining Penn State, he was a Postdoctoral Research Scholar (2013-2015) and Assistant Research Scientist (2015-2016) at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL). Professor Das’ Research Group (https://sites.psu.edu/sdas/) explores novel devices based on nanomaterials including carbon nanotubes, nanowires, graphene, phosphorene and layered two dimensional (2D) materials such as MoS2, MoSe2, WS2 and WSe2, among others. His ultimate goal is to develop future generations of high performance and ultra-low-power/self-power electronic, optoelectronic, spintronic, straintronic, neuromorphic, energy harvesting, and energy storage devices which are flexible, scalable, reliable, bio-compatible, corrosion resistant and radiation tolerant. Dr. Das has published 34 journals articles, authored 1 book chapter, given a total of 44 keynote, invited and regular presentations, and is a guest editor for a special issue on 2D Materials to be published in the journal, IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices (2018). He is a member of IEEE, has served on the Technical Committee for the Carbon conference and as a Focus Topic Organizer for the American Physical Society. Two US patents have been issued. Professor Das’ work has been cited more than 3800 times in the last 5 years. He has peer reviewed grant proposals for the Army Research Office (ARO), Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), Defense Threat Reduction Agency, and the NSF Electrical, Communications and Cyber Systems pro-gram. Professor Das has won Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) Young Investigator Award, National Science Foundation (NSF) and Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) Award for Energy Efficient Computing from Devices to Architecture (E2CDA), Army Research Office (ARO) Small Term Innovative Research Award, and Laboratory Directed Research and Development Award from Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory (ANL). Further Das Research Group is funded by Corning Inc, NSF/IUCRC ATOMIC center, PPG Industries and Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Pacific (SPAWAR).
