Raman Spectroscopy of pure and (Nb+In) co-doped TiO2 single crystals

PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF MISFIT CHALCOGENIDE [(SnSe)1+δ]m[VSe2]n

Throughout four terms of study (typically Fall, Winter, Spring/Summer, Fall), MSMP (course-based) students are required to successfully complete ten half-credit courses. These include four theoretical courses, four experimental/laboratory courses, one computational course, and one research seminar course. Additionally, all students are expected to attend Departmental seminars. In addition to the aforementioned courses, students are required to take the GSPS course as well.

For full-time students enrolled in the Major Research Project (MRP), fulfilling course requirements within the ISP course-based program is crucial. All candidates are obligated to conduct, submit, and present a project that demonstrates proficiency in applying concepts in Materials Physics. Typically, this project is undertaken during the final two terms of study.
