WROC-TV talks to Mishkat Bhattacharya, associate professor in the School of Physics and Astronomy and Future Photon Initiative, about his superfluids research.

Researchers at RIT are part of a new study that could help unlock the potential of superfluids—essentially frictionless special substances capable of unstopped motion once initiated.

Guest essay co-written by Mishkat Bhattacharya, associate professor of physics and astronomy, published by The Conversation.

Optics and Photonics News features work by Mishkat Bhattacharya, associate professor in the School of Physics and Astronomy.

R&D Magazine talks to Mishkat Bhattacharya, associate professor of physics, about his research to create a laser for sound.

The optical laser has grown to a $10 billion global technology market since it was invented in 1960, and has led to Nobel prizes for Art Ashkin for developing optical tweezing and Gerard Mourou and Donna Strickland for work with pulsed lasers. Now an RIT researcher has teamed up with experts at the University of Rochester to create a different kind of laser – a laser for sound, using the optical tweezer technique invented by Ashkin.

RIT researcher Mishkat Bhattacharya is building a theoretical framework to predict how nanoparticles made of graphene, silica and rare-earth compounds behave when suspended within the center of a laser beam.

Research conducted by Mishkat Bhattacharya, a theoretical physicist, is advancing a new kind of sensing technology that captures data with better precision than currently possible and promises cheaper, smaller and lighter sensor designs.
