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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Geometrical and Topological Properties of CMB Polarization Fields
Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is a relic from the early Universe. It was generated due to the physical processes in the early Universe during an epoch known as the recombination or decoupling epoch. The CMB has highly ... -
Glassy Dynamics in Active Matter
There has been much interest in the glassy dynamics of living systems at the scales of subcellular structures, cells and tissues. This has motivated theoretical studies on the approach to glassy behaviour in dense systems ... -
Global gyrokinetic simulations of electrostatic microturbulent transport in LHD stellarator and ADITYA-U tokamak
Tokamak and stellarator are two leading contenders in the quest to achieve nuclear fusion from magnetically-confined plasmas. They differ in terms of magnetic field structure in the toroidal direction. Irrespective of the ... -
