About Department
The Department of Physics is dedicated to the development of global, multicultural, and multi-faceted scientists, teachers, administrators, and engineers capable of working across borders and boundaries.
Department of Physics, a department equipped with world-class labs, classrooms and eminent professors, offers four year B.Sc. (Hons./Hons. with research) programme in Physics, four-year B.Sc. (Hons. /Hons. with research) in Physics with minor in Computational Physics /Renewable Energy, two years M.Sc. programme in Physics, and an active Ph.D. programme in which a number of research students are currently enrolled.
The department has 19 faculty members who, apart from world class teaching, undertake cutting edge research on various active fields in physics eg: Nano Science, Solar cell technology, Actuators, Super capacitors, Ultrasonics, Cosmic rays, Photonics, Liquid crystals, and Multiferroics. It also has Physics laboratories of global standard to support teaching and research. Apart from regular engineering Physics labs, Nuclear physics lab, Optics lab, Electronics lab, and centre for Solar Cells and Renewable Energy (CSRE) are also essential part of the teaching learning/research.
World level Centre for Solar cells and Renewable Energy (CSRE) is a common platform for providing hands on training on synthesis, characterization and application of nanomaterials. CSRE is equipped with most important characterization tools like impedance spectroscopy, Keithley source major unit, FTIR, UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy. Using materials (stated above) and specialized equipments we are able to develop electrochemical devices like Solar Cells- Dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC), Perovskite solar cell (PSC), Quantum dot sensitized solar cell (QDSSC), Super Capacitors, Electrochemical Double Layer Capacitor (EDLC), Sensors, Fuel Cells.
