IIT Delhi Professor on Semiconductors & India's Tech Revolution | Dr. Awanish Pandey on ACP 52

[@asg2602]

Dr Awanish Pandey! What a gem of a person.. humble background, PhD from IISc, postdoc from CERN! Now ast prof at IIT Delhi. Rare to find this unique blend of expertise on modern science and technology, global consciousness, national character, sarcasm and physique. Best wishes 🙏🤞

Good thing is that he came back

[@biswajeetdassh9305]

@@deadbeat_genius_daydreamer If there are enough intentions for the necessity of science and technology in the govt (GOI), all brains will come back or never go to any foreign country permanently. I think current govt. has this intention. Unfortunately, we haven't found the same in previous versions.

Having Electronics and Communication in my college subjects I never believed that some day I ll listen to a discussion where my previous knowledges(little) in this field may help me to understand the discussion.... I was always been heartbroken that there are no proper electronics things in my country India.. Sadly working in IT industry. It's a bit relief for me now. I'm specially very very glad that something really useful (my subject electronics) is slowly becoming the hot topic in a national podcast. I'm very grateful to Gurujee Abhijit Chavda... Sir, thank you so much.

As someone who has worked in the product companies like TI, NXP and others, as well as wafer fabrication equipment companies like Lam Research and others, I can assure you that this was one of the best episodes on the topic of semiconductors in the limited amount of time available for this podcast. If anyone is interested to read further on this topic, they can check out this book by Daniel Nenni, titled Fabless: the Transformation of the Semiconductor Industry.

[@natarajanviswanathan6048]

Great interview. My opinion (as someone who emigrated after an IIT education in the 90s) is more than money the issue is one of respect (or lack there of). This is why there are pockets of excellence such as ISRO, IGMDP, ADA etc. even when money issues are equally a challenge in those organizations. A cultural shift to our roots of respect for learning and scholars is happening and will surely yield results in this Azadi ka Amritkaal.

Excellent Discussion...great guest and relevant questions..As a PhD and Analog.IC designer myself, I do feel that we have already missed the golden era of growth when semiconductor revolution was at its peak (no one to blame except the Indian governments of the day)....But it is high time to take this on on war footing, Indian governments must do whatever it takes to open indigenous Fab units in India, run and operated by Indians..At the same time India must gear-up to churn out worlds brightest IC designers and tapeout chips at a massive scale, rather than simply limiting itself to a sloppy IT back-office of the world. We must heavily monetarily incentivize research and investments in this field..It is high time to work at WAR MODE NOW.

I remember the day I heard the news of Semiconductor Complex Limited in Chandigarh burnung down. A boy from Amritsar and I were EE students in Sydney at the time and both were very distraught at the news. That was one job option we had gone right in front of us. At the time it was reported as a sabotage. No CBI investigation was ever done I think I'm glad GoI has a vision to setup semiconductor ecosystem now.

[@nrusimha11]

Wonderful episode, Abhijit. Most important for providing the historical context for how we ended up where we are today, and offering a tentative path to where we want to be. Vital context for youngsters who idolise Apple and Tesla while disparaging Bharateeya companies, because they lack a first understanding of root causes.

Thankyou elder for this sharing us an insightful conversation and this comment is for Dr.Awnish Referencing video Timeline 1:14:22 Topic (help for: Non Reciprocal Transmission/ One way Transmission) I might be wrong in here cause this is not my field of experty yet science is magical when people from different field get together to solve A problem, I have an example for one way flow of molecules can be done "tesla's valve" then again this is light we are talking about here, so it might reflect back try "inverse tesla valve" might work here cause light photon's reflection would be scrambled at the reflected end or the source end due to the scattering of photos on a curved surface of the Valve on return rather than flat surface reflection Path that it took while 1st travel. Note: Remember to play with the angle of attack of photon and tilt the drop shape structures in the valve then again you are gonna do it anyway so Keep up the good work and my prayer and well Wishes for your project. Appricate the read, have a good one.
