Fast ionic solids with liquid-like conductivity near room temperature have garnered attention for the last four decades. Many compounds with high ionic conductivity, comparable to molten salts and aqueous solutions e.g. Li3N, Na--Al2O3, NASICONs,
Fault-tolerant quantum computing is concerned with answering the broad question: How can one design a large-scale quantum computer to operate even in the presence of a small amount of noise from the environment? We propose to work on a promising appr
Among the various transition metal ions, copper and iron play crucial roles in biological processes. Both these ions are required in optimal concentrations in the body for its normal functioning. For instance, iron has an essential role in red blood
Chemical phenomena in condensed molecular solids have implications to chemistry, physics, biology, and industry. These molecular solids are present in the universe and processes on them have relevance to interstellar chemistry and atmospheric process
Over the past decades, real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) has emerged to be an accurate, efficient, affordable and state-of-the-art method for the laboratory simulation of seismic effects in structures. An RTHS combines large-scale physical models wi
The evolution of any group of biota is always intricately linked to the geomorphological evolution of the area. The biota of the Indian subcontinent is influenced by its unique & remarkable tectonic history. India is placed in the Oriental Realm alon
