Contribution : |
| Dr. K. Venugopalan obtained his M.Sc.
degree from University of Calicut followed bya Ph.D. Degree in physics, in the
area of Nuclear Spectroscopy on the Topic "Electric Field Gradients in Metals"
using Mossbauer Spectroscopic and Perturbed Angular Correlation Techniques, from
Mohan Lal Sukhadia University Udaipur. The most significant contribution ofihe
Ph.D. work was special heat treatment techniques used in doping of Fe-57
isotopes in Arsenic and Selenium and establishing that universal correlation
constant of EFG holds good even in the presence of a high degree of covalency.
National facilities like cyclotron (at VECC, Calcutta), pelletron (at NSC, New
Delhi) and Dhruva Reactor (at BARC, Mumbai) were used in the investigation of
hyperfine interactions in metals and alloys. Under the UGC DRS
programme,development of new magnetic materials were undertaken and the research
group could produce new Fe-Cr-AI alloys alloys. X-ray characterisation of one of
these (Fe2CrAL) has been incorporated for use as standard data in the JCPDS
(Joint Committee for Powder Diffraction Standards) database. Neutron & X-ray
diffraction studies are use din the study of disorders in the Fe based Heusler
like magnetic alloys. Development of permanent magnetic materials as well as
thin films of magnetic materials are being undertaken currently under UGC COSIST
Programme. Dr. K.Venugopalan has been trained in computer science from short
term courses followed by training programme at Hefei. He has also received
training in computer application and system software from ICTP, Trieste, Italy.
In the area of computer science, he is presently interested in computer networks
computer simulations, scientific visualizations in Physics.Physics related to adaptive
optics, Image analysis and processing. |
