Sculpting colloidal membranes through phase transformations
Shaping macroscopic 2-D thin elastic sheets through differential strains in the system is a widely studied phenomenon applicable in diverse areas such as flexible electronics, origami and tissue growth. In contrast, at the ...
Probing charge-density waves and superconductivity in low-dimensional systems
The recent advent of two-dimensional materials has led to the discovery of materials
with fascinating phase diagrams. These systems have exciting electronic phases which
coexist or compete with each other. Here in this ...
Study of room temperature coupling of colloidal quantum dots to plasmonic arrays and metamaterials: from single quantum dot to quantum dot assemblies
There is much current interest in coupling emitters, such as fluorescing dye molecules and semiconductor
quantum dots to plasmonic systems. Controlling the electromagnetic interactions between quantum
emitters and the ...
Investigation of the Thermoelectric Properties of Single and Double Substituted Cu12Sb4S13 Tetrahedrite
According to the current energy consumption, out of the total energy supplied as input in various sources such as power plants, factories, automobiles, etc., only around 30% of the energy is converted to useful work. The ...
Ultrafast Study of Layered 3D Topological Insulators, Graphene-Gold Hybrid Plasmonic Nanostructure and Ultrathin Gold Nanowires
In a typical time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopy, ultrafast laser pulses (pulse width ~ 100
fs) are utilized to induce a perturbation in the material of study within a time much shorter
than the characterisitic lifetime ...
Cooling, heating and gas evolution in the circumgalactic medium
The Universe at large scales consists of gravitationally bound dark matter halos. Ordinary gas inside the halos emits
and also absorbs the radiation from background sources leaving distinct signatures for multi-wavelength ...
Numerical Studies of Spiral- and Scroll-wave Dynamics in Cardiac Tissue: (1) Spiral- and Scroll-Wave Turbulence; (2) Spiral- and Scroll-Wave dynamics in Anatomically and Physiologically realistic Mathematical Models for Canine and Human Ventricular Tissue
A summary of the main results of our studies is
given below. In most of our work, we use three mathematical models for cardiac
myocytes, namely, the Panfilov model, the Aliev-Panfilov model, and the
Hund-Rudy-Dynamic ...
Probing phase transition and anisotropy in magnetic insulator based heterostructures employing magnon spin currents
Thermoelectric phenomena like the Seebeck and Peltier effects are known for more than two centuries with a wide range of applications. In 2008 Uchida et al. first demonstrated the phenomena called Spin Seebeck Effect (SSE) ...
Interplay of Interaction and Topology From Topological Band Theory to Topological Field Theory
Classification of phases of matter has long been a central point of interest in the research community in condensed matter physics. Over the past several decades mainly two kinds of classification schemes have emerged, ...
Investigations on structural, optical and electrical properties of lattice matching CdZnTe & HgCdTe colloidal quantum dot systems for possible core-shell structures in optoelectronic devices
In this work, alloyed II-VI group CdZnTe, HgCdTe colloidal quantum dots (QDs) have been synthesised and their optical, material, electrical properties are studied for optoelectronic applications. The bandgap of the alloyed ...
