Semiconducting polymer materials have several applications in electronics and optoelectronic devices. The charge transport in these complex systems is yet to be fully understood to optimize the performance of the devices. ...

Understanding charge transport in molecular systems is of fundamental interest in rapidly growing field of molecular electronics as well as to understand biological signal transfer processes which are accompanied by the ...

The presence of an accretion disk around a neutron star (NS) or a black hole (BH) is mainly responsible for the observed X-rays from the night sky. NS or BH is a part of the binary systems, and matter flows from a companion ...

The ferromagnetic (FM) material finds its applications due to the property of spontaneous magnetization. An FM object can hold its state of magnetization unless any external stimuli change it. The easy manipulation of its ...

In the last two decades, research on two-dimensional (2D) materials has gained momentum due to their capability to host a wide range of novel phases of matter. These materials have also found applications in electronic, ...

Friction is pervasive in all fields of science. It is the key factor that emerging technologies involving autonomous motion at micron scales such as micro-bots need to overcome in order to be efficient. They fall in the ...

In the last two decades, there has been tremendous progress in two-dimensional (2D) - material research. It is mainly due to the availability of a large selection of 2D-materials and their van-der-Waals heterostructures. ...

Neuromorphic Computing (NC), which emulates neural activities of the human brain, is considered for low-power implementation of artificial intelligence. Towards realizing NC, fabrication, and investigations of synaptic ...

The work reported in this thesis includes structural and functional studies on thymidylate kinase and RecFOR pathway proteins from Thermus thermophilus HB8. In the first part, a study was performed on the thymidylate ...

In the past decade, a major fraction of the research carried out in condensed matter physics has been dedicated to address the unique physical properties of single layer graphene (SLG). Different properties of Dirac ...
