About the authors
Born in India in 1953.Professor K. P. Ghatak obtained his B.E degree in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering in 1974 from the then Bengal Engineering college Shibpur(Presently Bengal Engineering and Science University) in 1974, M.Tech and PhD(Tech) degrees from the Institute of Radio Physics and Electronics of The University of Calcutta in 1976 and 1988 respectively.He joined as Lecturer in the Institute of Radio Physics and Electronics of the University of Calcutta in 1983, Reader in the Department of Electronics and Telecommunication of Jadavpur University in 1987 and Professor in the Department of Electronic Science of the University of Calcutta in 1994 and was at the top of the merit list in all the cases respectively. Professor K. P. Ghatak is the First Recipient of the Degree of Doctor of Engineering of Jadavpur University in 1991 since the University inception in 1955 and in the same year he received the Indian National Science Academy visiting fellowship to IIT-Kharagpur. His present research interests are nano science and number thoery. He is the principal co-author of more than 200 research papers on Semiconductor and Nanoscience in eminent peer-reviewed International Journals and more than 50 research papers in the Proceedings of the International Conferences held in USA and many of his papers are being cited many times. Professor Ghatak is the invited Speaker of SPIE, MRS, etc. and is the referee of different eminent Journals. He is the supervisor of more than two dozens of Ph.D candidates in various aspects of materials and nanoscience and many of them are working as Professor, Associate Professor and Assistant Professor in different Universities and reputed Academic Institutions. He is the principal co-author of the said FOUR research monographs. The All Indian Council For Technical Education has selected the first Research and Development project in his life for the best project award in Electronics and second best research project award considering all the branches of Engineering for the year 2006.
