Kamanio Chattopadhyay (born 1950) is an Indian materials engineer and an honorary professor at the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru. [1] He is the chair of the Mechanical Sciences Division of IISc[2] and a former chair of the Department of Materials Engineering.[3]

Chattopadhyay is best known for his discovery of decagonal nanoquantum

quasicrystals which he accomplished in 1985, along with L. Bendersky and S. Ranganathan.[4][5] He is also credited with researches on synthesis and characterization of quasicrystals and nanocomposites[6] and is an elected fellow of all the three major Indian science academies viz. Indian Academy of Sciences,[7] Indian National Science Academy[8] and National Academy of Sciences, India[9] as well as the Indian National Academy of Engineering.[10] The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, the apex agency of the Government of India for scientific research, awarded him the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology, one of the highest Indian science awards for his contributions to Engineering Sciences in 1995.[11][note 1]

Illinois University are some of them.[8]

Chattopadhyay is married to Sukanya and the couple lives in Bengaluru.[15]

Legacy

Bulk Metallic Glass Samples

The early researches of Chattopadhyay during his doctoral studies with Ramachandra Rao were on rapid solidification of aluminum alloys and it was during this time he is reported to have discovered aluminum-based binary glass and nanodispersed composites.

metallic glasses that are ductile.[8] His researches have been documented in several peer-reviewed articles;[note 2][20] Google Scholar and ResearchGate, online repositories of scientific articles, have listed 407[21] and 360 of them respectively.[22] Besides, he has authored one book, Aluminum Based Nanoeutectics: Synthesis and Microstructure[23] and has contributed chapters to books edited by others.[24][25] He also holds a number of patents[26] which include those on Solder compositions,[27] Nickel-Aluminium-Zirconium alloys[28] and High Impact Solder Toughness Alloy.[29]

Chattopadhyay is the co-director of Solar Energy Research Institute for India and United States (SERIIUS),

Microgravity science.[13] He is a member of the National Steering Committee of the Indian Institute of Metals[35] and served as its vice president during 2012-13 and as the president for the term 2013-14.[36] He co-chaired the 11th Asian Microgravity Symposium–2016 held at Hokkaido University, Japan[37] and sat in the advisory committees of the International Conference on Metals and Materials Research organized by the Indian Indian Institute of Science, held in June 2016[38] and the International Symposium on Energy Materials : Opportunities and Challenges (ISEM-2011) held at Central Glass and Ceramic Research Institute, Kolkata in March 2011.[39] Besides mentoring a number of master's and doctoral scholars in their studies,[40] he has delivered invited or keynote addresses at several conferences which include Fifth International Conference on Solidification Science and Processing,[41] International Workshop on Advanced Co-based Superalloys: 3.0[42] and International Conference on Functional Nanomaterials[43] and he is a speaker designate at the TMS Annual Meeting and Exhibition to be held in March 2017 at San Diego, California.[44] He is a former editor of the Journal of Materials Science of Springer Science+Business Media[45] and is a member of the Board of Trustees of T. R. Anantharaman Education and Research Foundation, a Hyderabad-based non-profit organization promoting human resource development in engineering sciences.[46]

Awards and honors

Chattopadhyay received the first major award of his career in 1979 when he was chosen for the Young Scientists Medal by the Indian National Science Academy.

National Metallurgists' Day Award in R&D and Academia category in 2009[53] and he received the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Electron Microscope Society of India in 2011.[54]

The Indian Academy of Sciences elected Chattopadhyay as a fellow in 1995[7] and he became a fellow of the Indian National Science Academy in 1996[55] with the National Academy of Sciences, India following suit in 1999.[56] The Electron Microscope Society of India chose him as a fellow in 2009[54] and the Indian Institute of Metals made him an honorary life member in 2014.[57] He is also an elected fellow of the Indian National Academy of Engineering.[52] Non-Equilibrium Processing and Nanomaterials Laboratory of the Indian Institute of Science felicitated him in 2015, on his retirement from service, with a seminar and the screening of a Metallurgist’s Diary, a 20-minute long documentary on the life and work of Chattopadhyay made by his students at IISc.[15]
