Rajesh Tamang is a Research Fellow at the Ultrafast Bio- and Nanophotonics group led by Dr Jana B. Nieder. His work is focused on the development of optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) for the intracellular magnetic field and temperature sensing using NV centres in nanodiamonds.

Rajesh received his M.Sc in Physics from the University of Hyderabad in 2006, and M.Tech in Solid State Technology from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur in 2008. He worked in the synthesis and optical properties of nanomaterials at the National University of Singapore as a graduate researcher until 2011. He then moved to Germany and received his PhD in Experimental Physics from the University of Osnabrück in 2016 with his thesis work titled as – “Fluorescence spectroscopy of nitrogen vacancy centres in HPHT and CVD diamonds”.
