Novel Spectral Processing Methods in NMR – Wavelet Transform and Pattern Based Analysis
NMR spectroscopy provides a variety of information leading to an understanding of the properties of different materials. To extract this information from the experiments, one needs to have noise and artifacts free spectra ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Tuning Andreev reflection at Graphene - superconductor junction: from zero field to quantum Hall regime
Andreev reflection (AR) is the underlying phenomena that determines the quasiparticle dynamics at the junction of a superconductor with any non-superconducting material, which in turn determines the transport properties ... -
Multiband Modelling and Radio Observations of Gamma Ray Burst Afterglows
The widely popular and successful standard fireball model for Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) afterglows is based on ultra-relativistic external shocks sweeping up matter around the explosion site to accelerate electrons up to GOV ... -
Multi-Dimensional Solid State NMR - Methods Development and Application to Materials
In recent years, the scope of application of solid-state NMR to different areas has been witnessing a significant increase. Primarily, this is due to the possibility of routine use of proton NMR spectroscopy at ultrafast ... -
Light and magnetic field induced coherence effects in atoms
In this thesis, we have studied the coherence effects in atoms induced by light and a magnetic field. After giving an introduction to the contents of the thesis, details about the theory and the experimental setup used are ... -
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, ... -
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) ... -
Particles and Fields in Partial-differential-equation Models for fluid and Superfluid Turbulence
We have shown that uniformly rotating vortex-containing gravitationally-bound solutions of the GPPE can be generated by starting the evolution from initial data obtained by integrating to convergence the (imaginary-time) ... -
Impact of van der Waals epitaxy on structural and optoelectronic properties of layered solids
Emergence of Graphene, Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and other van der Waals materials promises to rede fine the building blocks of the future materials and technologies. These materials have gained enormous ... -
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and Magnetic Studies of Certain Doped Rare Earth Manganites
Doped rare-earth manganites with the general formula T1xDxMnO3 where `T' is a trivalent rare earth ion, e.g. La3+;Nd3+; Pr3+ etc. and `D' is a divalent alkaline earth ion, e.g Ca2+; Sr2+;Ba2+ etc. display various ... -
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 ... -
Coulomb drag to thermopower response in dimensionally mismatched InAs nanowire-Graphene heterostructures and anisotropic noise in ReS2
Coulomb drag technique is a notable tool for probing electron-electron interaction in double-layer systems, where the momentum and energy transfer from one layer to the other layer as a result of Coulomb interaction. In ... -
