Sanjit Manohar Majhi received his MSc degree in Chemistry, in 2008, at Utkal University, India. He started working as a researcher from 2009 to April 2012, at IMMT, CSIR, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. He has worked as a quality manager com lab technician in industry until Dec 2012 in India. He received his PhD in August 2017 from Jeonbuk National University (JBNU), South Korea. He worked as a Postdoctoral fellow at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), Saudi Arabia (2018-2019) and Hanyang University (2019-2020), South Korea. Majhi was a Research Associate at United Arab Emirates University (UAEU) (2021-2023) focusing on 2D materials for health and environmental applications. Currently, he is working as a Research Associate at New York University, Abu Dhabi, UAE since April 2023. He has published 37 papers with nearly 2780 citations, h-index of 27, and i10-index of 32. He is interested in the synthesis of various nanostructures including core@shell Nanoparticles, MOFs, metal-oxide NPs, 2D MXene materials, and organic crystals for gas, bio- and physical/mechanical sensor applications.
Sanjit Manohar Majhi is currently working as a Research Associate in the Smart Materials Lab with Professor Panče Naumov at New York University, Abu Dhabi. His main research focuses on the synthesis of 2D MXene materials, organic crystals for sensors and actuators applications. He studies mechanical deformation in the presence of light, force, and electromagnetic flux.
