The following are the goals of the SSE Physics Lab:
1. Preparing an institutional and national platform for student-driven experimental research in physics.
2. Indigenous development of experiments for the laboratory and demonstrations for the classroom environment.
3. Training SSE students in world class experimental physics through required and optional lab courses.
4. Sharing expertise, resources and training in physics education with sister institutions and organizations in the country and the region.
Round-up: A round-up of Physlab's activities over the past five years. Written by Sabieh Anwar (January 2015).
The physlab participated in the opening lecture of Dr. Waqar Zaidi from Social Sciences School in a course on industrialization. Hafiz Rizwan demonstrated a modern machine tool 'The bandsaw' as a case study of the industrialization movement. |
Several major refinements were made to almost all the advanced and introductory laboratory experiments with simplifications to the apparatus, revision of manuals, automation of manually intensive tasks and improved opportunities for data analysis. Click here to read more. |
This Fall 2015, join Dr. Muhammad Sabieh Anwar in the exciting course of Electricity and Magnetism describing electromagnetic interactions and Quantum Mechanics, one of mankind's most superior theories unraveling diverse physical phenomena. |
Continuing the trend of indigenous development and self-reliance, we now have our own 15 ton Hydraulic Pellet Press manufactured in-house at the laboratory's mechanical workshop facility by Senior Technician Hafiz Muhammad Rizwan. |
Dr. Murtaza Saleem joins us as Senior Research Scientist (in Electron Microscopy). He is a Ph.D from University of the Punjab and has considerable technical experience in the fields of materials, plasma, magnetism and first principles simulations of materials. |
An article on Ultralarge magneto-optic rotations and rotary dispersion in terbium gallium garnet single crystal is published in Applied Optics. The article describes how rotary dispersion data can be used to model Faraday rotation based on an effective electric dipole transition, calculating the transition probability in the process. |
Congratulations to one of the earliest members of the Physlab staff, Amrozia Shaheen on being selected as PhD candidate at the University of Twente, Netherlands. |
Final year projects for graduate and undergraduate students are available in the research group of Dr. Muhammad Sabieh Anwar. Interested candidates can contact him here. Details of the projects can be accessed by clicking this link. |
Junaid Alam has been selected for participation in School on Hands-on-Research in Complex Systems 28 June - 10 July 2015 being held at Trieste Italy. This workshop will target graduate students and faculty of developing countries and get them introduce with hands-on research. |
In December 2014, Physlab installed a fog monitoring station. The aim was to determine the atmospheric composition and associated meteorological conditions. Chemical analysis of the acquired data is being done recently. See details here. |
An article on Defects induced magnetization in B-doped ZnFeO dilute magnetic semiconductors is published in Physics B. This article deals with fabrication and characterization of B-doped ZnFeO. |
Collaborative work on electrospun fibers is now published in Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine. This work describes wound dressing matrices developed by electrospinning. See more details here. |
