S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences

The S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences is an autonomous research institute engaged in research in basic sciences. The institute was founded under Department of Science and Technology, Government of India in 1986 as a Registered Society. The Centre was established to honour the life and work of Professor S. N. Bose who was a colossal in theoretical physics and has made some of the most fundamental conceptual contributions in the development of Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Statistics. The Centre has emerged as a major institution for research and development in Basic Sciences.

Mechanism identified behind exotic disordered state of matter could be used for optical data transmission & communications
Mechanism identified behind exotic disordered state of matter could be used for optical data transmission & communications

Researchers have explored the mechanism behind the emerging property of recently discovered exotic disordered state of matter, known as “hyperuniformity�. Hyperuniformity is a property of certain heterogeneous media in which density fluctuations in the long-wavelength range decay to zero. Hyperuniform disordered materials have been observed in a variety of settings, such as in quasicrystals, large-scale structures of universe, soft and biological emulsions and colloids, etc.

A New Sustainable, Efficient Amide Synthesis Process can Streamline Drug Production & Reduce Costs
A New Sustainable, Efficient Amide Synthesis Process can Streamline Drug Production & Reduce Costs

Researchers from S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, an autonomous Institute of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), have introduced a novel method for synthesizing amides from alcohols using a Covalent Organic Framework (COF) as a photocatalyst under red light irradiation. This catalytic method can be helpful in chemical processes across various industries, including pharmaceutical manufacturing, materials science, and green chemistry - offering a more sustainable, efficient, and recyclable approach to creating vital chemical structures.

Scientists take a major step towards unification of classical & quantum gravity
Scientists take a major step towards unification of classical & quantum gravity

In a step forward to unify the classical theory of gravitation and quantum mechanics researchers, through their calculations have obtained an uncertainty relation induced from the noise of gravitons—the hypothetical quantum of gravity, an elementary particle that mediates the force of gravitational interaction.

Mechanically gated transistor developed using single molecule for faster, greener electronics
Mechanically gated transistor developed using single molecule for faster, greener electronics

A unique transistor developed using single molecules, controlled by mechanical forces could pave the way for advancements in areas like quantum information processing, ultra-compact electronics and sensing applications. In a breakthrough in electronics, scientists at the S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences an autonomous institute, have developed a unique transistor using single molecules, controlled by mechanical forces rather than traditional electrical signals.
