Size Dependence of Static and Dynamic Properties of Nanobars and Nanotubes
(2018-02-11)This thesis aims at investigating size dependence of properties of nanostructures from the point of view of a general scaling theory that smoothly connects properties of the bulk to that of nanostructures. Two different ... -
Slow Dynamics In Soft Condensed Matter : From Supercooled Liquids To Thermotropic Liquid Crystals
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-06-20)This thesis, which contains fourteen chapters in two parts, presents theoretical and computer simulation studies of dynamics in supercooled liquids and thermotropic liquid crystals. These two apparently diverse physical ... -
Soft Materials Derived From Bile Acid Analogues
(2009-05-06)Chapter 1. Introduction This chapter is an overview on the literature of self-association of small organic molecules. The chapter is presented in four parts. First, an introduction to aggregation of small molecules is ... -
Soft X-ray Multilayers As Polarizing Elements : Fabrication, And Studies Of Surfaces And Interfaces
(2010-03-09)The exploitation of the soft x-ray/extreme ultra-violet (EUV) region of the electromagnetic spectrum is possible mainly due to the development of multilayer (ML) mirrors. This region of the electromagnetic spectrum offers ... -
Sol-gel based organic-inorganic hybrid coatings for corrosion protection of aerospace aluminium alloy
Aluminium metal is known for its high electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and high reflectivity. Aluminium alloys of 2XXX series, particularly the 2024 alloy with the quaternary Al–Cu–Mg–Mn composition are widely ... -
Solid Oxide Based Electrodes for CO2 Reduction
The conversion of CO2 to fuels can be instrumental in reducing future dependence on fossil fuels. High temperature (800oC) electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO using a solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) provides an ... -
Solution-Processed Optoelectronic Devices Based on Colloidal Semiconductor Nanostructures for Photodetection
(2018-06-08)Miniaturisation of electronic and optoelectronic devices have enabled the realization of system-on-a-chip technology in modern image sensors, where the photo sensor arrays and the corresponding signal processing circuitry ... -
Solvent Effects on Photochemistry and Photophysics of Aromatic Carbonyls : A Raman and Computational study
(2017-12-16)Solvent effects play diverse roles in myriads of chemical, physical and biological processes. The solvent interacts with the solute by: i) non-specific (Coulombic, van der Waals interactions) and ii) specific interactions ... -
Spectral Simplification In Scalar And Dipolar Coupled Spins Using Multiple Quantum NMR : Developments Of Novel Methodologies
(2010-07-28)Spin selective MQ-SQ correlation has been demonstrated by either selective pulses in homo-nuclear spin systems in isotropic and weakly orienting chiral media or by nonselective pulses in hetero-nuclear spin systems in ... -
Spectrally selective tandem absorbers for photothermal conversion in high temperature solar thermal systems
Solar energy is the inexhaustible and abundant energy resources on the earth which can be a best substitute for the fossil fuels. Over the past couple of decades, all the solar technologies are rising very steadily in two ... -
Spontaneous Light Emission from Molecular Junctions
Abstract: The study of light emission [1] from a molecular junction is recently gaining research interest. This has direct relevance to develop novel optoelectronic devices [2] and to understand light-matter interaction ... -
Statistical Mechanical Models Of Some Condensed Phase Rate Processes
(2010-09-13)In the thesis work we investigate four problems connected with dynamical processes in condensed medium, using different techniques of equilibrium and non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. Biology is rich in dynamical ... -
