        Other Activities

        We conducted the logo competition among the students for the upcoming conference “International Conference of
        Functional Materials for Future Technology (ICFMFT-2023)”. The logo designed by Mr. Naveen Rufus was chosen
        for the conference.























        Upcoming Facilities/Events





        Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD)


        To meet the upcoming challenges, one has                                                             Rotator
        to  evolve  and  upgrade  continuously.                         Gas Supply
        Therefore, we are also preparing our centre
        equipped  with  state-of-the-art  facilities  to   From
                                                          Laser
        keep it in mind. In that process, recently we     Source                                            Target
        set up a high-power LPY700 series Nd-YAG                                                             Plume
                                                                                                             Substrate
        laser from Litron UK. These pulsed lasers are                                                        Heater
        suitable for our research which requires high
        energy  for material ablation  and  depositing
        the thin films. The laser can operate in pulsed
        mode giving a maximum energy of 600 mJ @
        532 nm. The second and fourth harmonics will be employed for Pulsed laser deposition.
