MAITY GROUP
FMD Lab at a Glance
'Atom to Device'
Functional Materials & Devices Laboratory is based in the School Of Physics, Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Thiruvananthapuram (IISER TVM), India. Our research is strategically focused on three main research themes: New Functional Materials, Device Applications, and Sustainability. The group and the institute are home to a wide range of thin-film growth and nanofabrication equipment as well as a diverse suite of magnetic, electronic, and structural characterization techniques. Our present research encompasses fundamental research in materials engineering, spintronics, ion-tronics, and Quantum Materials.
Vacancies
We have three PhD positions in the following areas: Quantum Materials, Spintronics, Oxide memristors for Non-volatile memory (NVM)
