Junior Research Fellowship at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in India

Scholarship details

 

The Department of Condensed Matter Physics and Materials Science, Tata Institute of Fundamental research in India are offering junior research fellowship in Mumbai, India. The students from India are eligible for this junior research fellowship. The duration of this fellowship is for the period of one year which may get extended to the next three years. 

The students who have a Masters in Physics/ Metallurgy/Inorganic chemistry/Materials Science from a recognised university can apply for this junior research fellowship. The students with NET/GATE Inspire fellowship will be given preference. The applications along with three references, CV, name of three references.  The applications will be entertained till the position of the research fellowship gets closed. The field of science in nanoscale has largely focused on the discovery and the synthesis of new nano-structured materials, the understanding of these materials in core,  surface and interface structures as well as the unique properties in these reduced dimensional systems. 

The recent technological advances in the field of electron microscopy have increased the spatial resolution in the sub-A range, the energy resolution to sub-ev and the sensitivity to the detect the single atoms. These studies have placed enormous talent and technologies in the field of nanoscopy and nanoscience helping to unravel the properties and different phenomena of the particles.
