On the Stability of Certain Riemannian Functionals
(2018-03-06)Given a compact smooth manifold Mn without boundary and n ≥ 3, the Lp-norm of the curvature tensor, defines a Riemannian functional on the space of Riemannian metrics with unit volume M1. Consider ... -
On The Structure of Proper Holomorphic Mappings
(2017-09-28)The aim of this dissertation is to give explicit descriptions of the set of proper holomorphic mappings between two complex manifolds with reasonable restrictions on the domain and target spaces. Without any restrictions, ... -
On-board Failure Diagnostics and Failure Prediction of High Power White Light Emitting Diodes Used in Safety Critical Applications
Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) have become a focus of global lighting community owing to their long service life, low energy consumption and environmental friendliness. The ever-increasing use of LEDs in many applications ... -
One Dimensional Transport And Prospects Of Structural Transitions In Ultrathin Metallic Wires
(2013-02-25)This thesis reports transport in ultrathin single crystalline nanowires of gold (∼ 2nm). These nanowires were fabricated using an oriented attachment process whereby nanoparticles of appropriate dimensions join in a linear ... -
Operator Theory on Symmetrized Bidisc and Tetrablock-some Explicit Constructions
(2018-07-26)A pair of commuting bounded operators (S; P ) acting on a Hilbert space, is called a -contraction, if it has the symmetrised bides = f(z1 + z2; z1z2) : jz1j 1; jz2j 1g C2 as a spectral set. For every -contraction (S; P ), ... -
Optical And Structural Investigations Of Defects In CdZnTe(Zn ~ 4%) Crystals
(2013-06-12)The CdTe family members (in particular CdZnTe) remain the substrate of choice for epitaxial growth of HgCdTe for use in high performance infrared (IR) detectors and focal plane arrays. This is the case despite advances in ... -
"Optical Diffraction By Micro Cylinder" - A Few Investigations
(2013-04-04)Micro-cylinders with the diameters spanning the 1-20 μm range are growing in importance, for realizing devices with new functionalities. For custom functionalities, their device-designs impose, tolerance-related constraints ... -
Optical Diffraction Tomography for the Refractive Index Profiling of Objects with Large Space-Bandwidth product
(2018-05-25)The primary goal of this work is to arrive at direction tomography (DT) algorithms freed from the severe linearization in the formulation, and as-assumptions on variation of the refractive index distribution (RID), involved ... -
Optical Interrogation of the 'Transient Heat Conduction' in Dielectric Solids - A Few Investigations
(2018-08-13)Optically-transparent solids have a significant role in many emerging topics of fundamental and applied research, in areas related to Applied Optics and Photonics. In the functional devices based on them, the presence of ... -
