20th NOV 1917 ACHARYA JAGDISH CHANDRA BOSE INSTITUTE ESTABLISHED

 
Bose Institute was founded by Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose, F.R.S., in 1917. The institute was one of the earliest, perhaps the first modern research institute in India. He is generally acknowledged as the father of modern scientific research in India.

His scientific investigations can be classified under the following groups:

1894-1899Started experimental research on the Hertzion waves (1894) in India and created the shortest radio-waves (5mm). He had devised a portable (10" x 12") apparatus for the study of optical properties of 5 mm waves. It had the earliest waveguide and Horn Antenna of Microwave engineering of today. J. C. Bose was the pioneer in multimedia communication. First communication experiments were conducted in 1895 in Calcutta. His Galena Detector was the first semiconductor device and the earliest Photovoltaic Cell (Applied for patent and granted in 1904, patent no. U.S. 755840). Recently, he has been acknowledged by IEEE (USA) as one of the pioneers in the discovery of radio.

ACHARYA JAGADIS CHANDRA BOSE COLLECTION

1899-1902Initiated detailed study of coherer leading
 to his discovery of the common nature of
 electric response to all forms of stimulation,
 in animal and plant tissues as well as in
some inorganic models
1902-1907He continued efforts to device inorganic
models of the biophysical phenomena
underlying electrical and mechanical
responses to stimulation, the transmission
 of excitation in plant and animal tissues
and of vision and memory.
1907-1933During this period he devoted himself
mainly to the study of response phenomena
 in plants, complexity of whose responses
 lies intermediate between those of inorganic
 matter and animal. J. C. Bose founded
premier research institute, BOSE INSTITUTE,
 in Calcutta on 30th November 1917. J. C.
Bose delivered his address "The Voice of life"
