About the Conference
Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman
Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman was an Indian physicist. He employed monochromatic light from a mercury arc lamp which penetrated transparent material and was allowed to fall on a spectrograph to record its spectrum. He detected lines in the spectrum which he later called Raman lines. He presented his theory at a meeting of scientists in Bangalore on 16 March 1928, and won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930. In his memory, research students in Physics department of Savitribai Phule Pune University organise Raman Memorial Conference every year.RMC
The Raman Memorial Conference, started in the year 1994, is organized annually by the research students of the Department of Physics, Savitribai Phule Pune University. The two day conference is enriched by scientific talks and discussions. There are five invited talks with oral sessions. The invited talks are delivered by eminent scientists from various fields to promote the interaction between the scientists and the students. The open discussion after each oral presentation and at poster session is a key to self assessment and self understanding. Ever since the event started, it has continuously grown in all aspects. The conference aims to encourage young researchers working in physical sciences and related areas to present their work, interact among themselves and with eminent scientists in relevant fields.

Physics of 2D Materials: Theory and Experiments
The rise of research in two-dimensional (2D) materials began after the isolation of graphene in the year 2004. The abundance of properties, combined with the highest achievable surface-to-volume ratio, render 2D nanomaterials suitable for advanced applications in several areas, such as material science, physics, chemistry, engineering, biology, pharmacy and medicine. Current research trends in 2D nanomaterials offer plenty of opportunities to study electronic, optical, thermal, mechanical, vibrational, spin and plasmonic properties. The development of new applications in particular, the novel top-down or bottom-up approaches to create new materials, is endless.
The scope of RMC 2019 “Physics of 2D Materials: Theory and Experiments” is to provide a platform for presenting the state-of-the-art knowledge of research on the properties, novel synthesis techniques, characterization and applications of 2D nanomaterials into electronic, optical, or electrochemical devices, as well as to cover the current challenges related to them.

Bhiday Prize
R. Chandrashekhar Memorial Foundation's (RCMF)
Late Dr. M. R. Bhiday Prize
For papers (oral and poster) with ‘Potential for Industrialization’The prizes are meant for the papers (oral or poster) presented at RMC-2019 and which have got potential for industrialization (or attempts are already made in that direction). The selection will depend upon the decision of a committee (consisting of the representatives of RCMF, the Department of Physics, the Department of Electronics Science and the Department of Instrumentation along with one or two distinguished industry-personnel) based on the abstracts and an interview by the committee (to be arranged at the time of RMC).
All the participants who feel that their paper could be considered for the prizes are requested to send their ‘Detailed Synopsis’ to rmc AT physics DOT unipune DOT ac DOT in at the earliest for the preview of the committee.
The synopsis should indicate additionally the following:
- What industrial applications are expected?
- What attempts are made in that direction-contact with industries etc.
- Most importantly, what study is made for indicating the reliability, repeatability, reproducibility etc of the results.
- Indication of previous work reported by the group on the topic.
