Siksha 'O' Anusandhan (Deemed to be University), Bhubaneswar declared u/s 3 of UGC Act, 1956 is a leading University in India offering professional pro- grammes in various disciplines. Based on its all-round performance, this University has been awarded ranks among top 15th best university category, 27th best in engineering institution, 16th best in medical science, in the country in by National Institutional Ranking Frame- work (NIRF) of Ministry of Human Resources & devel- opment (MHRD) in 2023. Govt. of INDIA consistently for last three years. Approved by UGC & AICTE, it has been reaccredited by the NAAC with A++ Grade (3rd cycle) and has obtained the International Accreditation by ABET, USA and certification by IAO, URS, UK.
Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar is an autonomous research institution within the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Government of India. The Institute was established in 1972 by the Government of Odisha and continues to receive financial assistance from DAE and Govt. of Odisha. The Institute has a vibrant research Programme in the fields of theoretical and experimental condensed matter physics, theoretical high energy physics and string theory, theoretical nuclear physics, ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions and cosmology, quantum information and experimental high energy nuclear physics. The accelerator facilities include a 3MV Pelletron accelerator and a low-energy implanter. These are being used for studies in low energy nuclear physics, ion beam interactions, surface modification and analysis, trace elemental analysis, materials characterization, and radiocarbon dating studies. One of the important areas in the Institute is in the field of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in general and surface and interface studies in particular. The Institute has several advanced facilities for sample preparation and for the study of various physical and chemical properties of nanostructures and bulk condensed matter systems. The Institute is actively involved in the International Collaborations with CERN (Switzerland), BNL (USA), ANL (USA), GSI (Germany), and other laboratories abroad. The Institute is also participating in various research activities related to India-based Neutrino observatory. The Institute offers Ph.D. Programme in Physics. Selected students are required to successfully complete one-year course work at the Institute. The selection for the doctoral Programme is through the Joint Entrance Screening Test (JEST). Candidates who have high CSIR-UGC NET or GATE scores are also eligible for doctoral Programme.
The aim of the International Conference on “Novel and Smart Materials for Next Generation” (SNMNG-2025) is to provide a common platform for researchers from both academia and industry across the globe to share, discuss and disseminate new ideas and thoughts in recent advances in materials and applications. The main focus will be on semiconducting, superconducting, and magnetic materials, multiferroics, spintronic materials, topological insulators which find applications in industries. The conference provides opportunity for researchers to present the recent results of their work in a forum of experts across the globe enabling and stimulating fruitful debate and discussion. The conference consists of invited talks from experts and presentations from young researchers.
This conference aims to bring together experts from various academic institutions, industries, and research organizations across the globe to share knowledge, expertise, and experience in the emerging fields of material science, engineering, and technology.
Major themes of SMMNG-2025, but not limited to
The conference will include: Invited Talks, Oral presentation and Poster Presentation.
The major outcomes of the conference will be the proceedings of the selected good quality papers to be published by the SCOPUS index journals and proceedings. The abstracts will be published as a souvenir booklet.
The abstract should contain concise form of original research work. Maximum word limit of abstract is 250 without the title, designations, and keywords. It is recommended to include a graphical abstract following text. Abstracts can be mailed as attachment to the conference mail ID: snmng@soa.ac.in.
Manuscripts found to be plagiarized during any stage of review process will be rejected. Therefore, authors are requested to submit their original and unpublished research work, which is not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
Accommodation will be provided on request with a duly filled-in registration form in the attached format. Many hotels are also available within 5 km distance of the University.
