Description | The video is a presentation on the life and career of the botanist, biologist, physicist Jagdish Chandra Bose. He was born in Mymensingh in undivided Bengal in 1858. His career can be divided into three distinct scientific periods: 1894-1899, the study of electromagnetic waves; 1899-1902, the shift from the physical to the bio-physical field; 1902, study of plant responses to physical stimuli. He is credited with the invention of the microwave in 1894-95 and is known as the Father of Microwave. He gave the world its first semiconductor device and analogue optics. In 1899 he presented a paper at the Royal Society of London where he explained the development of iron and mercury coherer which could detect radio waves. He also became the first scientist to use a semiconductor junction to receive radio waves. He invented more than 100 instruments like the compound lever cresograph and the oscillating plant phytograph.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
