Centre of Excellence in Solid State Physics
Centre of Excellence (COE) in Solid State Physics (SSP) was established in 1973 and is primarily a research institute, which offers courses leading to M.Phil. degree. The facilities for pursuance of a Ph.D. degree are also provided. This branch of Physics is concerned with the study of structural and electronic properties of solids, and some of the sub-disciplines under study in the Centre are: crystal structure determination, optical properties of solids, semiconductor physics, thin films, surface physics, solar cells, solar thermal generation of energy, preparation and study of ferro-electric, ferro-magnetic and superconducting materials, liquid crystals, nano-ceramics etc.
| The COE in SSP is now equipped with adequate research facilities to offer the following degree programs. |
- BS Biophysics and Nano-biotechnology
- BS Nanoscience and Nanotechnology
- BS Solid State Physics
- M.Phil. Solid State Physics (SSP)
- M.Phil. Microelectronic Engineering & Semiconductor Physics (MESP)
- M.S. Nanotechnology
- Ph.D. Solid State Physics
