Thermal Characterization of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes and Tungsten Oxide-Based Nanomaterials via Raman Spectroscopy.- Carbon: The Soul of Future Nanoelectronics.- Antireflection Properties of Multi-Crystalline Black Silicon with Acid Textured surfaces using Two Step Metal Assisted Chemical Etching.- Enhanced Removal of Cationic dye Methylene blue from aqueous solution using Nanocellulose prepared from agricultural waste Sugarcane bagasse.- A Review on Thermophysical Properties of Nanoparticle-Enhanced Phase Change Materials for Thermal Energy Storage.

This book presents the proceedings of the International Conference on Recent Trends in Materials and Devices, which was conceived as a major contribution to large-scale efforts to foster Indian research and development in the field in close collaboration with the community of non-resident Indian researchers from all over the world.

The research articles collected in this volume - selected from among the submissions for their intrinsic quality and originality, as well as for their potential value for further collaborations - document and report on a wide range of recent and significant results for various applications and scientific developments in the areas of Materials and Devices. The technical sessions covered include photovoltaics and energy storage, semiconductor materials and devices, sensors, smart and polymeric materials, optoelectronics, nanotechnology and nanomaterials, MEMS and NEMS, as well as emerging technologies.
