Rotational Spectroscopic and Computational Studies on Inter/Intramolecular Bonding
The importance of non-covalent interactions cannot be undermined, as it permeates nearly every sphere of chemistry. The hydrogen bond is the most well-known and ubiquitous non-covalent interaction. In recent times similar ...
Electrical and Opto-Electronic Devices Based on SnSe2 Thin Films
SnSe2 is a semiconductor with unique and interesting properties such as band gap with layer thickness dependence. Theoretically, it has been predicted that the band gap can be varied between 1.2 and 2.04 eV. This range of ...
Design, Synthesis and Optical Characterization of Thiophene Based Luminophore
We successfully designed and synthesized a series of thiophene based luminophores. We were able to modulate the optical band gap of these luminophores by systematically fine-tuning the chemical structure of these compounds. ...
Modeling Magnetic Anisotropy in Single Chain Magnets
This thesis embodies work on modeling magnetic anisotropy in molecular magnets. Understanding the factors that govern the magnitude of anisotropy in these materials is crucial for tailoring molecules that can be used in ...
Stereocontrol through Catalytic Enantioselective C(sp2)−H and C(sp3)−H Alkylation: From Bifunctional Organocatalysis to Iridium-Catalysis
This thesis, entitled “Stereocontrol through Catalytic Enantioselective C(sp2)−H and C(sp3)−H Alkylation: From Bifunctional Organocatalysis to Iridium-Catalysis” primarily deals with the development of various catalytic ...
Addressing the Challenges in Designing of Efficient Thermoelectric Materials
Thermoelectric materials offer applications in conversion of waste heat to useful electrical energy
and are promising sources of renewable energy. To use a material efficiently in thermoelectric
application it is necessary ...
Transition metal phosphide nanostructures encapsulated in N,P co doped nanotubes for water splitting in wide pH range
In order to make clean and sustainable energy conversion, systems primarily requires the development of highly efficient and robust catalysts. One of the main challenges for designing the catalysts is to minimize the cost ...
Nonequilibrium dynamics and thermodynamics of some single-particle activity-induced diffusive systems
In the mesoscopic world, diffusion is a ubiquitous process and it is usually explained by the
Einstein’s theory of Brownian motion (BM). However, in the biological systems, some peculiar
dynamical behaviors are observed ...
Vanadium Dioxide: Bulk and Thin Films for Device Applications
In the present era, energy consumption is more than the energy that is generated for which renewable as well as non-renewable sources are used. In order overcome this lag, researchers are developing smart materials ...
