DST-FIST Supported Facilities:

I-STEM is a national portal that is the gateway for researchers to locate the specific facility(ies) they need for their R&D work and identify the one that is either located closest to them or available the soonest. Here in the Department of Physics, the following DST-FIST supported facilities are listed under I-STEM. Refer to the links provided for further information and bookings.
