About the Workshop
The workshop will give the participants, an
exposure to the various characterization techniques.
The objective of the workshop is to familiarize with
the basic principle, working and analysis of the
samples using sophisticated instruments like XRD,
SEM, TEM, IR, Raman EBSD, TGA/DSC, etc. In
addition to the lectures by expertise from renowned
institutions, an exclusive lab visit is also planned for
the hands-on experiences.
The workshop will
provide a platform for the exchange of ideas and
views among the academicians, researchers,
industrial experts and scientists.
