Fluctuation Driven Collective Phenomena in Electron Doped Quantum Paraelectric: KTaO3
The study of quantum phase transitions, in which a system undergoes a change in its ground state and physical properties due to quantum fluctuations at absolute zero temperature, stands as one of the most celebrated themes ... -
Fluctuations in quantum transport in topological insulators
Topological insulators (TIs) belong to a new class of materials characterized by linear surface states, which emerge in the bulk band gap due to non-trivial topology of the band structure. These surface states have various ... -
Fluid Flow And Electrochemical Bias Induced Effects In Carbon Nanotubes And Raman Studies On Iron Perovskites
(2011-09-30)This thesis is divided into two parts; the first part presents results on the effect of the flow of fluids and electrochemical bias on single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT). Issues pertaining to the entry of water into the ... -
Force and Shape Estimation using Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors for Assistance in Minimally Invasive Diagnostic and Surgical Procedures
Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors have become increasingly popular for applications in biomedical engineering. Amongst these, use of FBGs in ‘smart instruments’ for minimally invasive diagnostic and surgical procedures ... -
A Formal Proof of Feit-Higman Theorem in Agda
(2018-02-18)In this thesis we present a formalization of the combinatorial part of the proof of Feit-Higman theorem on generalized polygons. Generalised polygons are abstract geometric structures that generalize ordinary polygons and ... -
The Formation and Evolution of Bars, and Its Impact on Galaxy Dynamics
In this thesis we have studied bar formation and evolution using N-body simulations. We have focused on the effect of bulge mass and concentration on bar formation and evolution, and derived a new bar formation criterion. ... -
Fourier Analysis On Number Fields And The Global Zeta Functions
(2014-08-04)The study of zeta functions is one of the primary aspects of modern number theory. Hecke was the first to prove that the Dedekind zeta function of any algebraic number field has an analytic continuation over the whole plane ... -
Fourier coeffcients of modular forms and mass of pullbacks of Saito–Kurokawa lifts
In the first part of the talk we would discuss a topic about the Fourier coefficients of modular forms. Namely, we would focus on the question of distinguishing two modular forms by certain ‘arithmetically interesting’ ... -
Frequency and Temperature Dependent Mechanical Behavior of Three-Dimensional Cellular Structures of Graphene and Carbon Nanotubes: Role of Microscopic Interfacial Interaction
Three dimensional (3D) cellular structures with high mechanical strength and stability are recently proven to provide a crucial platform for multifunctional application in various fields namely biomedical, soft robotics, ... -
Frequency Domain Photoacoustic Signal Analysis for Temperature Sensing
Monitoring temperature in biological tissue is vital for different therapy applications like photo-thermal therapy, high-intensity focused ultrasound therapy, etc. Photoacoustic imaging has been used for volumetric temperature ... -

Fringe Projection Technique for Deformation Measurements under Impact Loading
(2018-07-05)High-resolution three-dimensional (3D) shape reconstruction of objects has huge potential for applications in the field of design, security, entertainment, biomedicine, industrial quality control etc. Of the available ... -
Fully Solution Processed Flash Memory
The field of advanced solution processed spin-coated electronics has rapidly expanded over the last few decades towards the development of low-cost, large area and low power consumer electronics for the design of ... -
Function Theory On Non-Compact Riemann Surfaces
(2014-06-30)The theory of Riemann surfaces is quite old, consequently it is well developed. Riemann surfaces originated in complex analysis as a means of dealing with the problem of multi-valued functions. Such multi-valued functions ... -
Fundamental aspects of the interface engineering in the heavy metal/ferromagnet-based perpendicularly magnetized systems
The ferromagnetic (FM) material finds its applications due to the property of spontaneous magnetization. An FM object can hold its state of magnetization unless any external stimuli change it. The easy manipulation of its ... -
Gas Sensor-Studies On Sensor Film Deposition, ASIC Design And Testing
(2009-04-29)The widespread use of Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) for cooking and as fuel for automobile vehicles requires fast and selective detection of LPG to precisely measure the leakage of gas for preventing the occurrence of accidental ... -
Gas Sensors - Micro-Heater Designs And Studies On Sensor Film Deposition
(2009-03-03)Current gas sensor technology, although meeting the minimum requirements in many instances, suffers for a number of limitations. Hence, there is currently a considerable volume of research being undertaken at many ... -
Generalizations Of The Quantum Search Algorithm
(2010-12-03)Quantum computation has attracted a great deal of attention from the scientific community in recent years. By using the quantum mechanical phenomena of superposition and entanglement, a quantum computer can solve certain ...
