Summary: 01
- “A process of making anorthite powder, anorthite sintered body and a process for the preparation thereof”, Sankar Ghatak, Manidipta De, Tapas Kumar Mukhopadhyay, Syamal Ghosh, Jiten Ghosh, Patent No: 0292 NF 2014, Date of filing: 19/01/2016 India.
Research Interest
Current research is focused on the study of local structures in technologically important nano/disordered materials from Laboratory based Atomic Pair Distribution Function (LAPDF) to determine the short range structure at atomic scale for better understanding the structure-property correlation at atomic label.
Crystal Structure Refinement & Structure Solution by Rietveld Analysis from X-ray Diffraction, Evaluation of Microstructural defects by X-ray line profile analysis, Nanostructure study from X-Ray Diffraction, Thin Film characterization by GIXRD, Phase transition and thermal behaviour study from High Temperature X-ray Diffraction.
Landmark Research Contributions
Developed model based X-ray diffraction techniques to utilize more scientific measurement data directly in the model fitting process for microstructural characterization of different materials in terms of microstructural parameters like crystallite size, lattice strain, lattice distortion, dislocation density, defect parameters (stacking faults, twining faults probabilities) etc. for structure-property correlation of materials.
Established Laboratory based Atomic Pair Distribution Function in a conventional X-Ray Diffractometer for the study of short range structures in nano/disordered materials.
