The programme of research is designed in such a way to enable the student to acquire competence in research methods and scholarship and to display sustained independent effort and independent original thought.

The degree of Master of Philosophy (MPhil) shall be awarded to a student who, on completion of an approved programme of study and research and on fulfilling the coursework requirements for graduation, presents a thesis embodying the results of his/her research and satisfies the examiners in an oral examination (and other examinations if required) in matters relevant to the subject of the thesis.

MPhil students are required to satisfactorily investigate or evaluate a chosen area, to show understanding of the context and significance of the work, and to present a clear, complete thesis of a quality worthy of publication.

The MPhil degree is awarded to a student who completes all stipulated coursework requirements, presents a thesis embodying the results of their research and satisfies the examiners in an oral examination (and other examinations if required) in matters relevant to the subject of the thesis.

Theoretical and Computational Physics

Various kinds of computational calculations (including but not limited to first-principles DFT, effective medium theory, molecular dynamics, analytical modelling, and numerical simulations, etc.) to predict materials properties and structures, with an emphasis on the following topics.

  • Flow of glassy polymer nanofilms; electron transport in solid-state quantum devices; formation of nanostructures in strained thin films
  • First-principles DFT calculations and molecular dynamics studies on 2D materials, interface and heterostructures
  • Machine learning and high-throughput calculations
  • Phonon vibration and Raman spectroscopy of ferroelectrics
  • Photonic crystals, topological photonics, plasmonic nanostructures, metamaterials, transformation optics, optomechanics of structured nanomaterials, and phononic crystals
