Rakesh Mohan Das

Assistant Professor

Dr. Rakesh Mohan Das joined KIIT in 2022 and is currently working as Assistant Professor (II) in the Department of Physics, School of Applied Sciences. His current research interest lies in quantum optics, quantum computing and quantum information, atomic, molecular, and optical physics, and observational astronomy. He earned his five years integrated MSc. degree in Physics from IIT Kanpur, after cracking the IIT-JEE 2006. Following this, he served as an IT consultant at Polaris Software Labs, Chennai for a year. In 2012, he ventured to Japan to pursue a Ph.D. at the Institute of Advanced Energy, Kyoto University, supported by the Monbukagakusho fellowship program. During his doctoral studies, he focused on atomic, molecular, and optical physics, collaborating with J-PARC, one of the world's largest proton accelerator facilities. He was also involved with small business firms based in Osaka in app development for two years. In 2019, he completed his PhD and returned to India. He was a short-term visiting fellow at NISER, Bhubaneswar after which he joined Utkal University as a postdoctoral researcher funded by RUSA, Govt. of India. He has about five years of teaching experience and three years of corporate industrial exposure.
