Current Activity:
(Not more than 50 words)
Investigation of superparamagnetism, anisotropy, phase transition, exchange bias, core shell, evolution of surface magnetism and spin dynamics in magnetic materials (magnetic particles, films, ferrofluids and magneto-rheological fluids)using MOKE magnetometry, Kerr microscopy and microwave resonance at low temp. Tailoring the magnetic properties and ferrofluid parameters to obtain desired magnetization and viscosity for energy conversion application. Also, developing an ISO (ISO/TC 229-nanotechnology) document on liquid suspension of magnetic nanoparticles. Yet another, development of Indian reference materials (IRM) for the calibration of FMR ,XRD and Magneto-rheometer instrument are done.
