About Us

Welcome to the Nanoelectronic Devices Research Laboratory (eNDR Lab) at the School of Physics, IISER Thiruvananthapuram. We are a dedicated team of experimentalists specializing in Applied Condensed Matter Physics, encompassing Ph.D. researchers, BS-MS majors and minors, as well as external and summer visiting students.

Our research focuses on the fabrication and characterization of thin film devices using cutting-edge nanomaterials, including halide perovskites (CsPbBr3 & Cs4CuSb2Cl12), MXenes, organic semiconductors, two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (2D MoS2 & ReS2), transparent amorphous oxides (TAOs), and various quantum dots (QDs). In addition to exploring electronic and optoelectronic applications, we rigorously study their plasmonic properties as quasiparticle phenomena.

Our team is well-versed in working within inert environments (MBraun glove box) and cleanroom settings. We are skilled in a range of experimental techniques, such as spin-coating, lithography (e-beam and photo), e-beam evaporation, sputtering, atomic force microscopy (C-AFM and KPFM), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS and UPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Our members are also proficient with digital multimeters, potentiostats, source measuring units, and parameter analyzers for electrical characterizations.

We are committed to developing reproducible, innovative device applications that have the potential to make a significant impact on our society. Inspired by Carl Sagan's words, “Somewhere, something is waiting to be known,” we strive to advance the field of nanoelectronics with high-performing devices. Our research spans device physics applications including Thin Film Transistors (TFTs), Plasmonics, Memristors & Neuromorphic Devices, Memtransistors, 2D Materials, Perovskite Nanomaterials, Quantum Dots, and Photovoltaics (PV).
