|---|---|---|
| Can JWST reveal the Hubble Sequence at High Redshift? | Speaker: Vicki Kuhn |
|
| Realization of surface properties of two-dimensional material on metal substrate: A step towards wonder material for future applications |
Abstract:
Surfaces and interfaces, also referred to as phase boundaries, play an important role in material performance for the application in nanodevices. When the surface of a material comes in contact with another phase, interaction occurs at the interface… Show more Speaker: Prof. Farhana Tuli |
