High-Tc Superconductor and Carbon Nanotude Research Laboratory

The laboratory is equipped with an excimer laser, deposition chambers, furnaces, and chemical vapor reaction chambers for making high temperature superconductors and carbon nanobutes. It is also equipped with x-ray diffractometer, SEM, AFM, etc. for characterizations. A wide selection of high temperature superconductors are fabricated in this laboratory. Carbon nanotubes are used in energy storage experiments.

HIGHLIGHT
