Prasanta Kumar Basu (B.Sc honours in Physics), B. Tech, M.Tech and Ph.D. (all in Radio Physics and Electronics) joined the RPE department of Calcutta University as a Lecturer in 1971. His research has been in semiconductors. He is an Alexander von Humboldt fellow and he also worked as Visiting Professors in McMaster University, Canada, National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan, and TIFR, India. He was in several administrative positions in RPE department. After his retirement from CU in 2011, he worked as a UGB BSR Faculty fellow, then as Visiting Professor in IIT Kharagpur and finally as an investigator in a joint Indo Taiwan project. Since 2019, he is engaged in honorary collaborative research and book writing in RPE department.

Bratati Mukhopadhyay received the B.Sc (Hons in Physics)., B.Tech., M.Tech., and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Calcutta, Kolkata, India, in 1994, 1997, 1999, and 2007, respectively. She joined Institute of Radio Physics and Electronics, CU, as a Lecturer in 2008. Her research area includes Group IV photonics, transport and scattering in semiconductor nanostructures, nanoscale FETs, etc. In addition, she is one of the authors of a book "Semiconductor Laser Theory" (CRC Press, 2015). She teaches CMOS analog circuit, VLSI design, guidedwave photonics, and photonic devices, in addition to semiconductor related subjects. She also supervises a number of B.Tech. and M.Tech. projects and guides several Ph.D. students.

Rikmantra Basu (B.Sc honours in Physics), B. Tech (IT), M.Tech (RPE) and Ph.D. (CUNN) all from Calcutta University joined as an Assistant Professor in the ECE department of BITS Pilani in 2013 and then in the ECE department of NIT Delhi in 2014. His research is in Semiconductor photonic devices, Group IV photonics and plasmonics, sensors at mid IR using GeSn alloys, and biosensors on graphene. He is the recipient of URSI Young Scientist award and he worked as visiting Scientist in Bristol University, UK and National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan. He has guided and is guiding several M. Tech and Ph.D. students.
