Mechanical, Structural, Thermal and Electrical Studies on Indium and Silver Doped Ge-Te Glasses having Possible PCM Applications
(2018-02-09)The Science behind amorphous Chalcogenide materials opened up new technologies in the arena of Phase Change Memories. The Ovonic universal phase change memory is called universal because it can replace flash memory, DRAM ... -
Mechanising knot Theory
(2018-01-31)Mechanisation of Mathematics refers to use of computers to generate or check proofs in Mathematics. It involves translation of relevant mathematical theories from one system of logic to another, to render these theories ... -
Mixed Norm Estimates in Dunkl Setting and Chaotic Behaviour of Heat Semigroups
(2018-01-03)This thesis is divided into three parts. In the first part we study mixed norm estimates for Riesz transforms associated with various differential operators. First we prove the mixed norm estimates for the Riesz transforms ... -
Multi-Nuclear and Multiple-Quantum NMR in the Solid-State : Methods and Applications
(2018-01-03)NMR spectroscopy is a very powerful technique for the characterization of structure and dynamics of a variety of systems starting from small organic molecules to large biological macromolecules. In solids, the study of ... -
A Multiscale Modeling Study of Iron Homeostasis in Mycrobacterium Tuberculosis
(2018-05-10)Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), has remained the largest killer among infectious diseases for over a century. The increasing emergence of drug resistant varieties such as the ... -
Nanodevices of Graphene, Carbon Nanotubes and Flow Behaviour of Graphene Oxide Gel
(2018-05-09)In the last three decades carbon nanomaterials such as fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and graphene have attracted significant attention from the scientific community due to their unique electronic, optical, thermal, mechanical ... -
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, ... -
Optical, AC Conductivity, NMR and Raman Studies of Alkali Borogermanate Glasses
(2017-11-22)Physical properties of materials and their constituents are interrelated. Though the basic structural unit involved also plays a role in deciding the properties, this can be manipulated to a certain extent, by carefully ... -
Optimization of HfO2 Thin Films for Gate Dielectric Applications in 2-D Layered Materials
(2018-03-02)Recently, high-κ materials have become the focus of research and been extensively utilized as the gate dielectric layer in aggressive scaled complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. Hafnium dioxide (HfO2) ... -
Particles and Fields in Superfluid Turbulence : Numerical and Theoretical Studies
(2017-12-16)In this thesis we study a variety of problems in superfluid turbulence, princi-pally in two dimensions. A summary of the main results of our studies is given below; we indicate the Chapters in which we present these. In ... -
Phoretic Motion of Colloids : Single Particle and Collective Behaviour
(2017-12-16)In this thesis we have studied systems that driven by mechanisms broadly known as phoresis. More specifically, in the second chapter we calculate the excess noise in electrophoresis of a colloid due to microion fluctuations. ... -
Poly-Vinylidene Fluoride Based Vibration Spectrum Sensors and Energy Harvestors
(2017-12-07)Mechanical vibrations in large structures such as buildings, bridges, dams and critical frequencies in large machinery generally have low frequencies (100Hz-1000Hz). To monitor large areas of such structures we need huge ... -
A Posteriori Error Analysis of Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Elliptic Variational Inequalities
(2018-02-15)The main emphasis of this thesis is to study a posteriori error analysis of discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods for the elliptic variational inequalities. The DG methods have become very pop-ular in the last two decades ... -
Precision Measurements of the Radio Background at Long Wavelengths
(2018-05-09)The study of continuum sky background spectrum at low radio frequencies has achieved specific importance in present day observational cosmology . At these low frequencies the sky continuum is contributed by the extragalactic ... -
Quantum Simulations by NMR : Applications to Small Spin Chains and Ising Spin Systems
(2017-11-22)Quantum simulations, where controllable quantum systems are used to simulate other quantum systems, originally proposed by Richard Feynman, are one of the most remarkable applications of quantum information science. Compared ... -
Role of Excess Fe in Pristine and Substituted Fe Chalcogenide Superconductors
(2018-03-02)Fe chalcogenides : The discovery of superconductivity in Fe based compounds trig- gered an intense research activity in this field with significant importance given to material synthesis. As a result, numerous materials ... -
Shift-like Automorphisms of Ck
(2018-01-03)We use transcendental shift-like automorphisms of Ck, k > 2 to construct two examples of non-degenerate entire mappings with prescribed ranges. The first example exhibits an entire mapping of Ck, k>2 whose range avoids a ... -
Shortest Length Geodesics on Closed Hyperbolic Surfaces
(2018-01-31)Given a hyperbolic surface, the set of all closed geodesics whose length is minimal form a graph on the surface, in fact a so called fat graph, which we call the systolic graph. The central question that we study in this ... -
