Biography:
After graduating as an Electronics Engineer (BE) from Jadavpur University, Mr Utpal Nundy joined Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), Mumbai in the year 1968 as a Trainee. In 1969 he joined the Laser Program of BARC. He was associated with development of high-power CO2 lasers. Under this program an axial flow 500-Watt CW laser, and an Electron Beam sustained 75 Joule pulsed laser with 26% efficiency was developed. He joined the Laser Program at Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology ( RRCAT) Indore in 1989. Here he developed Excimer and Chemical lasers. Here 50 mj, 50 Hz KrF and XeCl lasers were developed. He has 37 research publications to his credit. Recently he received the “International Researcher of the year” award for his work on CO lasers at the ICRE (International Congress of Research Excellence) on 16th March, 2024.
