Jyoti Biswas is an Assitant Physicist in the Accelerator Physics group in EIC. He earned his Ph.D. in Physics from Stony Brook University, NY, USA in 2020. Then he joined the Instrumentation division at BNL as a postdoctoral researcher focusing on high quantum efficiency and long lifetime photocathodes. In 2022 he joined the EIC directorate. 

He contributed to the development of High Voltage DC guns, low voltage high current cathode test stand, graphene coating on alkali antimonide photocathode, DBR, and superlattice GaAs-based photocathodes QE and ESP evaluation.  

He is skilled in beam dynamics simulation, spin polarization, and many material characterization techniques such as XPS, TEM, STM, LEEM, LEED, Raman, XRD, and many more.
