Also if someone finish in PhD in Physics, then how does the chances of getting green card change compared to Masters degree? I am a Physics graduate student working in the field of nano-science . I have an Indian Citizenship. Thanks for your help.

You have to get a sponsor first, preferably a relative.

If you get on with a university as a teacher, they will be your sponsor. In your case, you should be getting into a good school if your transcripts are good, so I would think Stanford or MIT (no idea, sorry) would sponsor you and bam. If going to a tech corporation, then it still should be no problem. I would focus on jobs.
