Hollow core photonic crystal fibres (HC-PCFs) for efficient laser beam delivery
Photonic band gap fibre and single-ring anti-resonant fibre have been successfully fabricated. Experiments are being conducted for efficient laser beam transmission at specific wavelengths through the fabricated...
Development of new generation nano metal oxide/graphene-polymer composite materials for use in wearable electronics
Nano zinc oxide/graphene-polymer composite materials with superior flexibility, high gauge factor and wide measurement range have been synthesized using hydrothermal, electrospinning and solvothermal methods. Mechanical, thermal, structural, morphological and...
Development of antireflection and high reflection sol-gel derived coatings with high laser damage threshold on quartz glass and KDP optics for high power Nd:Glass laser
Quarter wavelength optical designed single layer and double-layer sol-gel derived metal oxide based antireflection (transmission, 98-99% at 1054 nm) coatings have been fabricated on quartz glass optics. In addition, high reflection (>55% at 1054 nm) of 5-layer...
A process for the synthesis of graphene oxide and its application in paints
A lab scale (~ 50 g/batch) synthesis of graphene oxide has been developed in partnership with industry. Based on the process technology, the sponsor is able to create a pilot plant production of graphene oxide upto 500 g per batch. The produced graphene oxide has...
