Building the vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM)
The vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) is a versatile tool used to quantify the magnetization of nanomaterials and magnetic samples. An
Surface Plasmon Polariton (SPP) excitation on a gold/air interface
Usama’s work revolved around the demonstration of the Surface Plasmon Polariton (SPP) excitation on a gold/air interface in the so-called
Meissner Effect
The Meissner effect is the expulsion of a magnetic field from a superconductor during its transition to the superconducting state.
Semiconducting behaviour of thermistor
This demonstaration shows the semiconducting behaviour of a thermistor. A thermistor is a temperature-sensing element composed of semiconductor material which
Electron diffraction
This interesting demonstration utilizes a highly evacuated electron diffraction tube to show the wave behavior of electrons. The electrons are
Hall effect in Semiconductor materials
When a magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the direction of flow of charge carriers, in a semiconductor material, charge
