The steep rise in the contamination of natural water sources, has led to an increasing demand for alternate solutions to cater safe drinking water to mankind. Water treatment by separation technology utilizes semipermeable ...

To address the challenge of accurate, low cost and robust biosensors for diabetes management and early detection of diabetes complications, we have developed novel, robust sensing chemistry (or receptors) for electrochemical ...

In this thesis, we report the various aspects of fabricating a Cold Atmospheric Plasma system, which can be used for Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition. The greatest advantage of this system is its vacuum free ...

Segmental chain dynamics in polymer blends is a very important topic, not only from a fundamental point of view but also from technological applications. Because of the difficulties in the commercialization of new polymers, ...

High performance and low cost sensors based on microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have become commonplace in today's world. MEMS sensors, such as accelerometers, gy- roscopes, pressure sensors, and microphones, are ...

Electrons are weakly attracted to liquid helium due to the small but finite polarizability of helium atoms. However, they cannot enter the liquid unless their energy is more than 1 eV, due to the Pauli exclusion principle. ...

The rapid advancements in semiconductor technology have led to constant shrinking of transistor sizes as per Moore's Law. Wireless communications is one field which has seen explosive growth, thanks to the cramming of more ...

We have dealt with the problem arising from the incongruity between the evolution of the electricity system for meeting the objectives of economic growth, and the human/societal requirements of inclusive and affordable ...

Decentralization leads to functional and financial devolution of authority, induces more transparency in the system and puts emphasis on local needs. It creates platforms to voice and institutionalize the interests of ...

Water pollution has become an environmental catastrophe due to the rapid urbanization. The treatment of dumping of waste chemicals in water bodies has contributed to the increase in pollution. In addition to the pollution ...
