Welcome to the Advanced Functional Materials Laboratory at Tezpur University (Central University). As the mentor of this group, I welcome you to visit our website and interact on your scientific interests with members of our group. Advanced materials research is about making products smarter, better and faster. Our laboratory is engaged in the research of advanced functional materials in a multi-disciplinary team effort. A common thread that runs through is an effort to acquire in-depth understanding on structure - property correlation in new materials and explore their applications in wide spectrum of interdisciplinary areas. The group also pursues fundamental studies in areas of quantum materials and their quantum phenomena. The Department of Science and Technology, Department of Biotechnology and Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India have recognized the laboratory's work and have offered funding to fuel future innovation. Our future research will focus on collaborating with research labs, universities, and industries to further optimize our materials, devices, and processes, aiming to accelerate its scale-up and commercialization.
