FOR UG & PG STUDENTS AT NANO ORGANIC ELECTRONICS LABORATORY – EARTH’S FIELD NMR (NOEL -EFNMR LAB) LABORATORY AND ALVAS CENTRE FOR ADVANCED RESEARCH (ACAR LAB) LABORATORY,
DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS, ALVAS’S INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY,
SHOBHAVANA CAMPUS, MIJAR 574225, MOODBDIRI, D.K., KARNATAKA, INDIA

GENESIS
Scholastic ability of a graduate is often tested through deliverables, contribution, outcomes serving the greater purpose of the society. Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM) graduates are required to show their competency in either, expertise in technique, experience in selected research area, assistance in a project, or Internship in a research environment, at any institute, research centres to suffice the attributes of academia. In this regard Alva’s Institute of Engineering & Technology, Moodbidri, which nurtures its researchers at Department of Physics, AIET through various labs and research ecosystem, extends support to UG and PG students of STEM to take up SUMMER RESEARCH INTERNSHIP for a short duration of one-month accounting for their curriculum. This initiative also supplements and compliments the National Education Policy – 2020 curriculum wherever necessary as Project work, Research work, Internship etc.

ABOUT FACILITY
The Department of Physics, AIET, Moodbidri has been quite fortunate enough to have a research culture nurturing management which has wholeheartedly funded few instruments and few others procured using Govt. research grants (VGST-CISEE 2020-21). This has resulted in establishment of Nano Organic Electronics Lab and Earth’s Field NMR Lab (NOEL-EFNMR Lab) and Alva’s Centre for Advanced Research (ACAR) in 2017. The laboratories are well equipped with following research facility.

NOEL-EFNMR LAB
1. Kiethley’s Digital Current Source meter (Tetronix) – Conductivity measurement
2. Variable temperature – Two & four probe measurement – VT Conductivity measurement
3. Magritek’s Earth’s Field NMR/ MRI Spectrometer – Low-field-NMR-Imaging
4. LabIndia’s UV-VIS Spectrophotometer – Variable wavelength/ Multiple sample UV-VIS
5. High end Computational facility – Density Functional Theory Calculation, Parallel Computational facility at IMMM, Le Mans, FRANCE
6. SS built Glove Box (one pair glove)– Inert atmosphere or other extended research usage
7. Basic facilities viz., synthesis lab (all graded glass wares), Hot air oven, Water bath (circulating), Refrigeration, Centrifuge, High precision balance, Magnetic stirrer (Variable temperature SS and Ceramic plate),

ACAR LAB
1. Excel Instruments’ Spray Pyrolysis setup – facility for growing Thin film
2. Excel Instruments’ Gas sensor measurement – facility for measurement in sensors
3. CH Instruments’ Electrochemical Workstation – facility for corrosion study
4. Basic facilities – DC Power analysers, Digital oscilloscopes, Spinners for sample preparation etc.

ABOUT FACILTATORS
The NOEL-EFNMR lab and ACAR lab are spearheaded by experts in their respective fields of interests varying from Conducting polymers, Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy, Density functional theory calculations, Thin-films, Sensors, Energy materials etc. The faculties have been working in their respective field for almost 15-20 years on an average generating abundant amount of experience which certainly would benefit the users, especially students.

Winter Research Internship 2021-22

FOR UG & PG STUDENTS AT NANO ORGANIC ELECTRONICS LABORATORY – EARTH’S FIELD NMR (NOEL -EFNMR LAB) LABORATORY AND ALVAS CENTRE FOR ADVANCED RESEARCH (ACAR LAB) LABORATORY,
DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS, ALVAS’S INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY,
SHOBHAVANA CAMPUS, MIJAR 574225, MOODBDIRI, D.K., KARNATAKA, INDIA

GENESIS
Scholastic ability of a graduate is often tested through deliverables, contribution, outcomes serving the greater purpose of the society. Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM) graduates are required to show their competency in either, expertise in technique, experience in selected research area, assistance in a project, or Internship in a research environment, at any institute, research centres to suffice the attributes of academia. In this regard Alva’s Institute of Engineering & Technology, Moodbidri, which nurtures its researchers at Department of Physics, AIET through various labs and research ecosystem, extends support to UG and PG students of STEM to take up SUMMER RESEARCH INTERNSHIP for a short duration of one-month accounting for their curriculum. This initiative also supplements and compliments the National Education Policy – 2020 curriculum wherever necessary as Project work, Research work, Internship etc.

ABOUT FACILITY
The Department of Physics, AIET, Moodbidri has been quite fortunate enough to have a research culture nurturing management which has wholeheartedly funded few instruments and few others procured using Govt. research grants (VGST-CISEE 2020-21). This has resulted in establishment of Nano Organic Electronics Lab and Earth’s Field NMR Lab (NOEL-EFNMR Lab) and Alva’s Centre for Advanced Research (ACAR) in 2017. The laboratories are well equipped with following research facility.

NOEL-EFNMR LAB
1. Kiethley’s Digital Current Source meter (Tetronix) – Conductivity measurement
2. Variable temperature – Two & four probe measurement – VT Conductivity measurement
3. Magritek’s Earth’s Field NMR/ MRI Spectrometer – Low-field-NMR-Imaging
4. LabIndia’s UV-VIS Spectrophotometer – Variable wavelength/ Multiple sample UV-VIS
5. High end Computational facility – Density Functional Theory Calculation, Parallel Computational facility at IMMM, Le Mans, FRANCE
6. SS built Glove Box (one pair glove)– Inert atmosphere or other extended research usage
7. Basic facilities viz., synthesis lab (all graded glass wares), Hot air oven, Water bath (circulating), Refrigeration, Centrifuge, High precision balance, Magnetic stirrer (Variable temperature SS and Ceramic plate),

ACAR LAB
1. Excel Instruments’ Spray Pyrolysis setup – facility for growing Thin film
2. Excel Instruments’ Gas sensor measurement – facility for measurement in sensors
3. CH Instruments’ Electrochemical Workstation – facility for corrosion study
4. Basic facilities – DC Power analysers, Digital oscilloscopes, Spinners for sample preparation etc.

ABOUT FACILTATORS
The NOEL-EFNMR lab and ACAR lab are spearheaded by experts in their respective fields of interests varying from Conducting polymers, Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy, Density functional theory calculations, Thin-films, Sensors, Energy materials etc. The faculties have been working in their respective field for almost 15-20 years on an average generating abundant amount of experience which certainly would benefit the users, especially students.
