The International Symposium on Compound Semiconductors (ISCS) has awarded its 2016 Young Scientist Award to Srabanti Chowdhury, an associate professor in UC Davis Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). Among the department’s newest faculty members, Chowdhury previously held an assistant professor position at Arizona State University’s School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering.
Chowdhury earned her master’s degree (2008) and doctorate (2010) in electrical engineering at UC Santa Barbara. As part of her PhD work, she developed gallium nitride (GaN)-based vertical devices for power conversion, and demonstrated the first vertical GaN high voltage power-switching device — a current aperture vertical electron transistor (CAVET) — with a record-high breakdown electric field. In 2015 she received a National Science Foundation CAREER Award, an Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) Young Investigator Program (YIP) Award, and a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Young Faculty Award. Another one of her projects involves collaboration with PowerAmerica, a U.S. Department of Energy organization based at North Carolina State University with the goal of enhanced energy efficiency by making wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductor technologies cost-competitive with the currently used silicon-based power electronics.

In spring, the sky remains clear and also the gentle bridge helps to fly the kite quite nicely than any other time of the year.

People of Shakharipatti, Tatibazar, Lokkhibazar of the city celebrates the day with lots of courage and enthusiasm. Thousands of kites cover the sky of the city with colorful drapes. People of the mentioned places prepare delicious foods to entertain the guests. People of all ages go to the roof of their residential place to fly kites starting from the midday. Thousands of people including young ladies can be seen on the roofs depicting a fine composition of the festival. Some people also arrange musical system on the roof, which plays popular tracks loudly giving the festival a rhythmic backbone.
Most attractive part of the festival takes place when the sun set begins. Some people put characin into their mouth and blows fire with that liquid. Though the task is quite dangerous, it brings an illuminating effect all around the place.

after preparing the face of the GODDESS DURGA (HINDU DEVI) by clay ...the prepared clay models are burnt with heat to make them dry and solid in front of the naked fire flame. in this manner they are prepared for the setting with the body portion followed by painting by the expert artists. the think should be taken care that it should not be heated too much to create numerous cracks on the clay surface of the model.
Birla Mandir in Kolkata, India, is a Hindu temple on Asutosh Chowdhury Avenue, Ballygunge, built by the industrialist Birla family. This temple is open in the morning from 5.30 A.M. to 11 A.M. and in the evening from 4 .30 P.M. to 9 P.M. On Janmashtami, the birthday of Krishna, devotees come from far away places to pay their respect to the deities.
HISTORY
The construction of the temple began in 1970. It took 26 years to complete the entire structure. The construction was supervised by the Sompuras.
On Wednesday, the 21st of February, 1996, the Pran Prathistha was done by Swami Chidanandaji Maharaj in the morning. Dr. Karan Singh inaugurated the temple the same day.
TEMPLE

- The left side temple shikhar (dome) houses goddess Durga, the Hindu goddess of Shakti, the power.
- The right side dome of the temple houses Shiva in meditation mode.
- Spread on 44 kathas of land, this temple built of white marble bears resemblance to the renowned Lingaraj Temple of Bhubaneswar. Birla Mandir also showcases pictorial depiction of scriptures of Bhagavad Gita in its stone engravings and some intricate Rajasthani temple architecture. Designed by the architect Nomi Bose.

The International Symposium on Compound Semiconductors (ISCS) has awarded its 2016 Young Scientist Award to Srabanti Chowdhury, an associate professor in UC Davis Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). Among the department’s newest faculty members, Chowdhury previously held an assistant professor position at Arizona State University’s School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering.
Chowdhury earned her master’s degree (2008) and doctorate (2010) in electrical engineering at UC Santa Barbara. As part of her PhD work, she developed gallium nitride (GaN)-based vertical devices for power conversion, and demonstrated the first vertical GaN high voltage power-switching device — a current aperture vertical electron transistor (CAVET) — with a record-high breakdown electric field. In 2015 she received a National Science Foundation CAREER Award, an Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) Young Investigator Program (YIP) Award, and a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Young Faculty Award. Another one of her projects involves collaboration with PowerAmerica, a U.S. Department of Energy organization based at North Carolina State University with the goal of enhanced energy efficiency by making wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductor technologies cost-competitive with the currently used silicon-based power electronics.
