About
Research Area
I am Dr. Appalakondaiah Samudrala, Assistant Professor of Physics at Pondicherry University, previously recipient of the SERB–Ramanujan Fellow (2022). My research focuses on electronic, optical, and transport properties of quantum and 2D materials using multi-scale approaches such as Density Functional theory, Tight-Binding, and Molecular Dynamics. Current interests: moiré superlattices, topological phases, quantum transport, and optoelectronic effects.
