Functional Materials and Energy Devices Research Laboratory

            Functional Materials and Energy devices (FMED) laboratory at SRMIST continue to specialize in thermoelectric materials as well as expand into other energy and environmental applications such as solar cell, hydrogen production and gas sensing. We focuses on fundamental science with more prominence in condensed matter physics, solid state chemistry and material science. Our research field covers a wide variety of functional properties in topological insulators, 2D van der Waal gap materials, strongly correlated electron system, Zintl and silicide based alloys. We also develop expertise in photo diode, photo thermoelectric effect, high temperature transport measurement and chemical vapour deposition technique. Our group has associated with BARC Mumbai, NPL New Delhi, Shizuoka University Japan and CNRS France for the cutting edge outcome in the field of material research. Research in our laboratory is funded through SRMIST seed grant, DST-CRG, SERB and CSIR EMR.
