INUP-i2i supported startup 'Cablesmith' named winner in Elevate 2023

Cablesmith currently being supported under the INUP-i2i programme (a MeitY initiative) has secured a significant victory in Elevate 2023, an initiative by the Department of Electronics, IT, BT, and S&T, Government of Karnataka. Their innovative work was recognized in the telecommunication infrastructure sector.

INUP-i2i supported startup 'SuperQ Technologies' has been awarded the Digital Communication Innovation Scheme 2023

SuperQ Technologies, an incubatee with INCeNSE and currently being supported under the INUP-i2i programme (a MeitY initiative) has been awarded the Digital Communication Innovation Scheme 2023 Award from the Department of Telecommunication (DoT) for the development of a superconducting single photon detector.

Dr. Nagendra Nagraja, CEO of SuperQ was felicitated by Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw, Hon'ble Minister for Railways, Communications, Electronics & Information Technology, Government of India on 3rd July 2023.

INUP-i2i supported startup 'Bellatrix Aerospace' helps make the ISRO PSLV mission possible

The customized MEMS pressure transducer was specially designed, developed, fabricated, characterized, and packaged at CeNSE IISc through INUP - i2i programme using MeitY funded Nanofabrication facility, Micro Nano Characterization facility, as well MEMS Packaging Facility.

The timely support of the customized MEMS pressure transducer of the 0-65 Bar range has indeed helped Bellatrix Aerospace make the ISRO PSLV mission possible.

The team at CeNSE is happy to share that all tests with the Hall Thruster payload have been successfully passed.

Publications:

Vasu Pulijala*, Azeemuddin Syed, “Comparison of the effects of 60 nm and 96 nm thick patterned permalloy thin films on the performance of on-chip spiral inductors”, Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials Volume 419, 1 December 2016, Pages 245–248 DOI:http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0304885316310769

The communication from Dr. Vasu Pulijala thanking INUP/CEN team at IISc says "With the help of INUP we were able to fabricate a completely on-chip EPR sensor for the first time. This resulted in a publication and two patents. We are grateful to the entire team in helping us fabricate and characterize the device. We are working further to commercialize this device."

INUP Participant at IISc wins the best student paper award in SPIE Photonics Europe 2010

Renil Kumar, Research Scholar fron SSN College of Engineering, Tamilnadu, is executing his research project at CEN facility on IISc Campus under INUP. His work on "Widely tunable multi wavelength channel drop filter on (110) oriented SOI wafer by anisotropic wet etching" has won him the best student paper award in the Conference session on Silicon Photonics & Integrated Optics SPIE Photonics Europe 2010 conference held in Brussels from April 12-16,2010. This is an INSPEC listed and indexed conference. The conference had 19 simultaneous conference sessions and from each of this session they have identified one best student paper. His work competed with 24 other poster papers from Italy, France, US, China etc in the same session which had a total of 74 papers. Photonics Europe onsite news page (Wednesday) giving listing of the award winners now displays the name of Sivasubramaniya Nadar College(the parent institute of the participant) among some of the other top ranking universities in the field of Photonics like Stanford, Technical University Denmark, Ecole Poly Technique etc. The award carries a prize money of 50 Euros, free 1 year SPIE student membership and 50 free downloads from SPIE Digital Library.
