Solid State Chemistry Research Laboratory

History:

The Solid State Chemistry Research lab is designed to study electrical, dielectric and magnetic properties at high temperatures. This lab houses automated DC resistivity Set-up, automated AC susceptibility unit, LCRQ meter for dielectric measurements, Thermoelectric power set-up, and Ball mill. All these instruments were procured from DST FIST, UGC SAP and departmental equipment budget.

Research areas:

These instrumental facilities are for research students and M.Sc. dissertation students.

Resources and facilities:

Automated DC Resistivity Set-up upto 600 OC (ADEC), Automated AC susceptibility unit upto 600 OC (ADEC), LCRQ meter for Dielectric measurements versus frequency and upto 600 OC (Wayne Kerr, UK), Thermoelectric power set-up upto 600 OC (Pushpa Scientifics) and Ball Mill (Fritsch, Germany).

Achievements:

These instrumental facilities at Solid State Research lab have benefited several research students from Chemistry and Physics Depts. from our University.
