ULTRAFAST PHOTONICS LABAROTARY
About
Currently, Dr. Mondal is working as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Applied Physics, Defence Institute of Advanced Technology, Pune, India. His broad research area is the plasmonic photoconductive antenna, high electric field THz generation and detection, and the development of ultrafast fiber and solid-state laser oscillators and amplifiers and their applications. Previously, he has worked as a Research Assistant Professor at SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur, India, for three years. At Accelerator Science and Technology Centre, STFC Daresbury Laboratory, United Kingdom, as a Rutherford International Fellow, he worked on the experimental optimization of high-field multi-cycle terahertz pulses for the application of appropriate structures, including terahertz waveguides, terahertz photonic structures and resonant cavities. In his first postdoctoral study at IPE, Czech Republic, he developed different ultrafast, high-power mode-locked fiber lasers and their amplifier systems with different ytterbium, erbium, thulium, and chalcogenide fibers to produce broadband near-infra-red and mid-infra-red, frequency sources by frequency mixing processes. He completed his Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur in 2015 with a specialization in 'Ultrafast Lasers and Nonlinear Optics'. He published more than 40 peer-reviewed articles and two book chapters. He is a life member of OSI, ILA, and a Young Scientist member of OPTICA.
