Facilities

Materials Synthesis facilities

We have a state-of-the-art facility centre for materials synthesis, NNFC (National Nanofabrication Centre) at CeNSE which is adequately equipped with advanced and necessary tools for materials synthesis. The centre provides access to the Acid hood, Solvent hood, Spin coaters, Glove boxes, furnaces, and other required facilities. Safety is the foremost concern in these labs and hence users are required to pass a safety test before conducting their experiments. For more details click: NNFC

Film deposition using PVD

The thin films lab conducts investigations on the influence of process parameters on the structure and properties of functional thin films, leading to the development of epitaxial thin films and related devices. Facilities include evaporation, sputtering and ion beam systems, designed and fabricated for specific requirements.

Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD)

Operando structural characterization

In-situ XRD

TEM/STEM/in-situ biasing and heating

Piezo/pyro/ferroelectric measurements and device transport physics characterization

CeNSE is equipped with state of art centralized Characterization facility centre, the Micro Nano Characterization Facility (MNCF). We access all available facilities and equipments of this centre, which serves our needs. For more details, glance through this link: Micro Nano Characterization Facility

Analytical facility

Our lab is equipped with an advanced computational facility.

Workstation (i9-processor,10th generation); Turbo frequency: 5.20 GHz; 10-Cores, 20-Threads.

The system is equipped with materials analysis and simulation software.

At IISc, we also have an in-house central computing facility provided by SERC.
