Currently, Kanchan Sarkar traverses across the first-principles electronic structure upshots to commentary on the adsorption of chlorine and the formation of a surface chloride on Li(001) and Mg(0001). We anticipate that these theoretical outcomes within the framework of density functional theory are relevant for chloride-ion batteries in which lithium and magnesium are potential anode materials. Besides, it is also of fundamental interest, as halide adsorption on metal electrodes is an important process in electrochemistry. He is studying the adsorption properties and determining the stable adsorption structures, both with respect to the free chlorine molecule and as a function of the electrode potential. He will also address the process of chloride formation on the surface.
Besides, He is one of the active developers of the database software MOGADOC (MOlecular GAsphase DOCumentation), which is produced and distributed by the Chemieinformationssysteme (formerly Sektion für Spektren- und Strukturdokumentation) at the University of Ulm, has been a powerful tool for scientists all over the world to retrieve information about gas phase investigations.
Kanchan Sarkar got his formal training in soft computing and machine intelligence methods from the Center for Soft Computing Research and Machine Intelligence Unit, Indian Statistical Institute - Kolkata. During doctoral training in the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science - Kolkata, he experimented with several pure and hybrid soft-computing techniques in the general context of computing minimum energy structures of atomic, molecular and ionic clusters, undoped and bipolaron-doped oligomers. He was a postdoctoral associate in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, University of Minnesota and Applied Physics and Applied Mathematics department, Columbia University. In the USA, his postgraduate studies focused on the enormous possibilities that the techniques of evolutionary computing can offer a consistent procedure of generating projector augmented wave (PAW) data-sets maintaining the same level of accuracy as all-electron full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (AE-FLAPW) calculations up to high pressures. He had also introduced a new measure of atomic data-set quality by considering performance uniformity over an extended pressure range. His other projects involved computing ab initio thermoelastic properties of materials under extremely high temperature and pressure conditions, and designing atomic data-sets for lower mantle conditions to understand deep-earth processes. He was also one of the active software developer for the Virtual Laboratory of Earth and Planetary Materials (VLab) for high temperature and high-pressure elasticity calculations.
