PHYSICS

The field of Physics in the Department of Applied Physics includes four main research domains, namely Material, Space, Energy, and Theoretical. Materials research covers a broad range of topics such as nanomaterials, biomaterials, electronic, optical, and magnetic. Meanwhile, the Space field studies cover research in the fields of astronomy, astrophysics, and space weather which comprise fieldwork, theoretical, and data analysis approaches through collaboration from national and international levels. On the other hand, the area of Energy studies focuses on photovoltaic technology (PV) which includes energy conversion materials, as well as energy generation through indoor and outdoor experiments. Meantime, Theoretical Physics covers the fundamental aspect behind astrophysics, cosmology, matter, and energy via in depth mathematical studies of general relativity and quantum mechanics, and perhaps their unification attempts i.e. in the field of quantum gravity, string and brane.
