The Department is well equipped with air conditioned labs with internet services available to all the students and faculty members. The high speed broadband internet connectivity provides fast internet access for multiple users. The objective of the laboratory is to understand theoretical concepts experimentally. Application of lab learning is to handle the various equipments available in lab to understand the theoretical concepts, to analyze the reasons of deviation between the observed and theoretical results for various concepts and implement these concepts in day to day life.
The experiments in Physics lab are designed to expose students to various experimental techniques. The Physics laboratory is well equipped with the latest instruments to train the students to successfully conduct experiments related to different areas of Physics i.e., Optics, Lasers, and Modern Physics.
Optics lab is equipped with different typ e s o f lasers which are used to study the diffraction pattern and various laser beam characteristics like wavelength, aperture and angular divergence etc. Optics lab includes experiments viz determination of grating element, angular divergence of laser beam, wavelength of laser light using Michelson Interferometer and specific rotation of cane sugar solution using Laurent’s half shade Polari meter.
Modern Physics lab has facilities to conduct studies related to optical fiber parameters, i.e., numerical aperture, attenuation & propagation losses in optical fibers, specific charge ratio of electron using Thomson method, measurements of susceptibility of ferromagnetic materials, ionization potential of mercury using a gas filled diode, measurement of B-H curve for a ferromagnetic material, measurement of Hall coefficient and carrier concentration, measurement of Planck’s constant using LEDs.
After completion of experiments, the students are required to write the learning outcomes of the experiment. Sufficient time is allotted so that the students have optimum lab exposure. The lab course ensures that the students get a good insight into various concepts.
The Engineering Chemistry laboratory aims at developing strong experimental skills and industry ready engineering students. The Engineering Chemistry laboratory is well equipped with the latest instruments like Muffle furnace (Digital temperature control), electric oven (Digital temperature control), water bath, hot plate, magnetic stirrer, digital pH meter, digital conductivity meter and electronic weighing balance to train the budding engineering students practically.
The lab helps students in implementing the theoretical concepts and approaches of Chemistry in the field of engineering through the study of properties of different materials and their purity. Topics covered in laboratory course include water analysis, electroplating, conductivity measurements, pH-metry, polymer synthesis, coal analysis, determination of phase changes and surface tension.
