We are a research laboratory in the Department of Applied Physics at Defence Institute of Advanced Technology based in the vibrant city of Pune, Maharashtra, India. We currently work on Quartz Tuning Fork based gas sensors, machine learning for sensor data classification, electromagnetic interference shielding materials, hyperbolic meta-materials, and scanning probe microscopic analysis of materials. Highly motivated research scholars, fellows, and postgraduate students comprise of our research group. We are open to collaborate on related research topics.
