The deliverables available on the training programme

1. The XRD Facility: For structure and phase identification, chemists and physicists use this facility. The session is aimed to provide a complete demonstration starting from the powdered sample presentation to the analysis of the XRD spectrum. 

2. SCXRD: In the session, the working principle of the instrument will be covered along with a hands-on session demonstrating how to use this instrument. 

3. XRF: This experimental characterization technique is an essential part of geological science. Participants will learn about its importance and the theory behind the working of the instrument. 

4. NMR: This instrument is widely used by chemists, material scientists, and biologists. Participants will learn about the principle of NMR spectroscopy.

5. Surface Area Analyzer: This technique is experimental and is used by researchers. Participants will learn about its various principles and applications. 

6. DSC and TGA: These two instruments are basically used for the thermal analysis of materials. Participants will learn about the thermal analysis technique using these instruments.
