Development of a Spin-Polarized Low Energy Electron Diffraction System and Investigation on Spin-Orbit and Exchange Interactions on Ir(100) and Ultrathin Fe(100) Grown on Ir(100)
(2018-02-28)Spin-polarized electron beam has not yet been produced from an unpolarized electron beam using Stern-Gerlach type spin filter, because of the Lorentz force and Heisenberg uncertainty principle. At present, electron spin ... -
The Many Facets of Variabilities in X-ray Binaries
(2018-02-28)More than half a decade of X-ray astronomy with various balloon borne and space orbiting X-ray instruments, have led to discoveries and detailed studies of X-ray binaries. An important property of X-ray binaries is intensity ... -
Growth and Physical Properties of Biaxial Nonlinear Optical Crystals of Ascorbic Acid Family
(2018-02-26)Saccharides, a class of organic materials, are potential candidates for nonlinear optical applications. Ascorbic acid is a sugar acid and is classified as a monosaccharide. The molecule of ascorbic acid has two chiral centers ... -
A Study of Slow Modes in Keplerian Discs
(2018-02-25)A rich variety of discs are found orbiting massive bodies in the universe. These could be accretion discs composed of gas around stellar mass compact objects fueling micro-quasar activity; protoplanetary discs, mainly ... -
Threshold Voltage Shift Compensating Circuits in Non-Crystalline Semiconductors for Large Area Sensor Actuator Interface
(2018-02-25)Thin Film Transistors (TFTs) are widely used in large area electronics because they offer the advantage of low cost fabrication and wide substrate choice. TFTs have been conventionally used for switching applications in ... -
Exchange Spring Behaviour in Magnetic Oxides
(2018-02-23)When a permanent magnet is considered for an application, the quantity that quantifies the usability of that material is the magnetic energy product (BH)max. In today’s world, rare earth transition metal permanent magnets ... -
Magnetisation, Phases & Phase Transitions in Frustrated and Unfrustrated XY Model
(2018-02-23)Through our whole work we study the XY model with all its entirety, a particular spin model where spins are confined in a plane. We try to bring out a good understanding of this model with all different types of phases and ... -
Charge Transport in Semiconducting Polymer Devices
(2018-02-23)Understanding the fundamentals of Organic semiconductors is crucial aspect towards the technological applications. Conjugated polymers have shown many interesting physical properties. Especially the electronic and optical ... -
Modelling, Fabrication and Characterization of HgCdTe Infrared Detectors for High Operating Temperatures
(2018-02-23)In this work, we have designed, simulated, fabricated and characterized homojunction Hg1-xCdxTe detector for high operating temperature in the MWIR region. The IR photon detectors need cryogenic cooling to suppress thermal ... -
Insights into Substrate Specificity in Sortase Enzymes from Structural Studies on a Novel Class of Housekeeping Sortase (SrtE) Identifying Functionally Important Cis-Peptide Containing Segments in Proteins and their utility in Molecular Function Annotation
(2018-02-21)Understanding protein function is fundamental to the fields of protein engineering and drug design. While most of the previous efforts in this direction have focused on the sequence-structure-function paradigm, recent ... -
Design, Development and Performance Analysis of Micromachined Sensors for Pressure and Flow Measurement
(2018-02-18)Now-a-days sensors are not limited only to industry or research laboratories but have come to common man’s usage. From kids toys to house hold equipment like washing machine, microwave oven as well as in automobiles, a ... -
Compactness Theorems for The Spaces of Distance Measure Spaces and Riemann Surface Laminations
(2018-02-18)Gromov’s compactness theorem for metric spaces, a compactness theorem for the space of compact metric spaces equipped with the Gromov-Hausdorff distance, is a theorem with many applications. In this thesis, we give a ... -
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 ... -
A Study of Superbubbles in the ISM : Break-Out, Escape of LYC Photons and Molecule Formation
(2018-02-16)Multiple coherent supernova explosions (SNe) in an OB association can produce a strong shock that moves through the interstellar medium (ISM). These shocks fronts carve out hot and tenuous regions in the ISM known as ... -
Impact of Disorder and Topology in Two Dimensional Systems at Low Carrier Densities
(2018-02-15)Two dimensional (2D) systems with low carrier density is an outstanding platform for studying a wide spectrum of physics. These include both classical and quantum effects, arising from disorder, Coulomb interactions and ... -
