Experimental Studies Of Electron Spin Dynamics In Semiconductors Using A Novel Radio Frequency Detection Technique
(2015-08-05)A novel experimental setup has been realized to measure weak magnetic moments which can be modulated at radio frequencies (~1–5 MHz). Using an optimized radio-frequency (RF) pickup coil and lock-in amplifier, an experimental ... -
Experimental studies on n-type conduction in Bi Doped Ge-Se glasses : role of phase-separation and defects
In summary, the earlier evidence for phase separation in Ge??Se????Bi? glassy systems was discussed. Phase?separation evidence at both microscopic and macroscopic levels was also found in another Bi?doped glass system, ... -
An experimental study on thermoelectric transport at van der Waals interfaces
When two planar atomic or molecular layers are brought to sub-nanometer proximity, they form a van der Waals interface because the van der Waals force forms the dominant attractive force between them. The van der Waals ... -
Experiments on the 852 nm D2 Line of 133Cs with a Diode Laser System and their use in Measurement of the Permanent Electric Dipole Moment of the Electron
(2018-07-14)We give a brief introduction to atomic physics and the motivation behind our experiments in the first chapter. The electron’s electric dipole moment is an interesting quantity which is yet to be measured. In the 3rd Chapter, ... -
Exploration of multiferroicity, emergence of exchange bias effect and glassy magnetism in doped hexagonal rare-earth manganites
In recent days, the need for device miniaturization has led to immense research activities in the field of material science. It has become essential to discover and design new materials or to modify the existing materials ... -
Explorations of singularities in some hydrodynamical partial differential equations
The global regularity problem for the 3D Euler equations remains unsolved. The presence of finite-time singularities (FTS) can signal the breakdown of the PDE as a physical model for fluid flow; it is also conjectured to ... -
Exploring Application of Dendrimer in Energy Storage, Uranyl Extraction and Drug Delivery through Molecular Modelling
This thesis explores the potential applications of poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers, a class of highly branched polymers, using atomistic molecular dynamics simulations. We investigate the use of PAMAM dendrimers in ... -
Exploring carrier dynamics in van-der-Waals heterostructures with shot noise spectroscopy, thermoelectricity and opto-electronic study
In the last two decades, there has been tremendous progress in two-dimensional (2D) - material research. It is mainly due to the availability of a large selection of 2D-materials and their van-der-Waals heterostructures. ... -

Technological advances in the past decade in fabricating two-dimensional superconducting materials with low disorder have enabled exploring many exciting phases. In recent times, two-dimensional superconductors have been ... -
Exploring Electron Bubbles in Liquid Helium using Cavitation
An electron entering liquid helium experiences a repulsive potential of 1 eV. This originates in the interaction between the injected electron and electrons of the closed shells of helium atoms through Pauli exclusion ... -
Exploring one and two-channel Kondo effect and investigating dielectric properties in ferrimagentic nanocomposites of LaNiO3 and CoFe2O4
The Kondo effect is a well-known and intensely studied phenomenon in condensed matter physics. After the theoretical prediction of Zawadowski and Noizères about the two-channel Kondo (2CK) effect, several successful attempts ... -
Exploring Scalar-Tensor Theories of Gravity in Light of Tensions and Anomalies in Standard Cosmology
The $\Lambda$CDM model, the standard model of cosmology, has been highly successful in describing a wide range of cosmological observations. However, in the era of precision cosmology, it faces increasing challenges in the ... -
