Though Sir Venkata Raman was the first non-white person to get a Nobel prize in STEM, not many Indians were conferred the prestigious prize in the later years. 
This does not, however, mean that Indians did not have any remarkable contribution to modern science after #Raman. In this thread, in the coming days, I will be posting about the research and biographies of some Indians who, despite having made breakthroughs in science, were never awarded the Swedish prize.

On 28 February 1928, Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman discovered the Raman effect. The Raman effect is the change in the wavelength of light that occurs when a light beam is deflected by molecules. https://t.co/jtVLH0n1Rc

28th FFebruary each year is celebrated as National Science Day in #India, marking #Raman's discovery of the #RamanEffect.

Physicists have created a quantum circuit that teleported a single qubit from one end of a row to the other. Similar experiments could provide a toy model of the spacetime we inhabit.

ICYMI: As machines take on tasks like automated surveillance and automated driving, we’ll want their vision to be at least as good as the human eye. New work shows what a challenging goal that will be.

Until now, the cells and motors used in Ather’s electric scooters were being imported. However, in March, #AtherEnergy will stop importing the motors and source them locally. This should help the company keeping the prices of its products in check. In the future, the company could find a way to localise the cells, too.
