In this thesis we have studied phase transitions in a polymer solution and also in a two dimensional (2D) disordered system. In our study on the polymer system we present a model in an attempt to understand the observed crossover of a stiff polymer chain with side groups in a so…
Silicon has always been of interest to researchers from various fields, especially the semiconductor industry. Silicon and silicon-based materials are frequently used in integrated circuits and micro/nano-electro-mechanical systems. Interfacial phenomena between phases is import…
The last decade witnessed the rapid increase in the interest of the cesium lead halide perovskites (Cs-LHPs) and their successful applications in optoelectronic devices and photovoltaics. Increasing interest in perovskites arises from their extraordinary features such as having …
The D" region of the Earth, the lowermost few hundred kilometres of the lower mantle, is designated as a thermal boundary layer and chemically distinct layer above the core-mantle boundary (CMB). It plays an important role in mantle convection, core convection and the resulting …
