To spearhead the activities in Nanoscience and Technology and to address challenges in Space Science and Technology and related areas the department has established a Center of Excellence in Nanoscience and Technology. The Department is in the process of bringing all the facilities required to conduct advanced research in Nanoscience and Technology and allied fields. Currently the facilities such as Atomic Force Microscope, Particle Size Analyzer, Glove Box, electrospinning machine, contact angle goniometer, HPLC, planetary ball mill and surface area analyser are available in the centre. Department proposes to add X-ray Diffractometer and Plasma reactor to the research centre shortly.
