Hisar, August 22, 2026: Guru Jambheshwar University of Science and Technology (GJUS&T) has achieved a significant international recognition in materials science, with a new X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of pure sodium bismuth titanate ceramic, prepared by research scholar Deepa under the guidance of Prof. Neetu Ahlawat, being included in the prestigious ICDD PDF-5+ 2027 database.
Vice-Chancellor Prof. Narasi Ram Bishnoi congratulated Prof. Neetu Ahlawat and her research team, saying the achievement would strengthen the university’s international scientific standing and inspire faculty and scholars to pursue high-quality research.
Prof. Neetu is among the select Indian scientists whose experimentally determined XRD patterns have been accepted in the ICDD’s internationally recognised crystallographic database. The inclusion also places GJUS&T among the Indian institutions whose research has found a place in the global database.
Registrar Dr. Vijay Kumar lauded the team’s efforts, describing the achievement as an important milestone for the university.
The newly added XRD pattern will serve as a reliable crystallographic reference for scientists, research institutions and industries worldwide in material identification and analysis. Research scholars Deepa, Kanika, Pooja, Deepak Saini, Aarti and Achla Rani were present on the occasion.
