National Centre for Ultrafast Processes was established in 1997 initially as a DST-IRHPA-National facility - the first of its kind for the use of researchers in academic institutions for time resolved emission and absorption studies in the pico-second time scale. With the input of funds for separate building from the Tamilnadu Government, the centre has emerged as an advanced centre for research and the Senate of University of Madras approved the centre as a part of University of Madras and made it as an advanced Centre for Research in November - 2000. The centre has now emerged as a premier centre for Photonics and Ultrafast Spectroscopy.
On completion of five years in 2002 and based on the performance, DST has extended its financial support upto 2008 for maintaining the equipment and for adding Femto up-conversion facility in the Centre.
Currently the centre is focusing research in the field of Ultrafast Spectroscopy and Photonics including Photoinduced electron transfer reactions, photophysics of supramolecular systems, solvation dynamics, nanomaterials, fluorescent sensors and photochemistry in organized media.
UGC INNOVATIVE Centre
The twenty first century is said to be the age of photonics. Photonics is a multi-disciplinary subject that combines advanced electronics and optical technologies. Photonic technology forms basis for the development of future technologies in telecommunications, health care, aerospace etc. Bio-photonics is the interface of photonics and biological sciences, offering tremendous prospects for optical diagnostics, light activated therapy, surgery, bio-sensing and restoration of biological functions. In India the use of photon based technologies is at a stage of infancy and a sustained effort will be required for the country to realize the full economic and social potential of such technologies. UGC Identified this centre as Innovative Centre in 2004 and gives support for M.Sc Programme in Photonics and Biophotonics.
