Contribution
First, Red and Green LEDs were invented. But still white light
couldnot be produced.
20 years ago, these three invented Blue LED (light emitting diode)
using Indiaum Gallium Nitride semiconductor (InGaN)
Blue +Red + Green = White LED light produced, hence LED
Nakamura
became popular.
(US)
Today LEDs are the most ecient source of light.
WITHOUT INVENTION OF BLUE LED, WE COULD NEVER GET WHITE LED LIGHT!
2013 Nobel Physics: sub-atomic particles.
BEE to promote LED:

We should use LED because theyre
50% more energy ecient than CFL

does not use mercury, unlike CFL.
Lifespan 4-5 times more than CFLs
Uses 1/10 energy of an incandescent bulb.
Yet produces same amount of light.
Challenge: high cost than CFL and bulbs. Therefore, Bureau of Energy Eciency (BEE)
under the Ministry of Power, came up with following ideas:
Give nancial support to all states- to promote LED use.
Under Rajiv Gandhi Grameen Vidyuthikaran Yojana (RGGVY): Give LED bulbs to BPL
families.
Electricity distribution rms should sign pacts with LED companies. To supply LED bulbs
at discounted rates to their consumers.
For example BEE + EESL (a JV of PSUs) began selling LED bulbs to households at Rs.10
instead of MRP of Rs.400.
The electricity distribution companies then repays EESL, over a period of 5 to 8.
BEE will launch a labelling programme and awareness campaign for LED.
Nobel Medicine 2014

Only then, we can remember things and their exact
place around us.

microscope, which can show details in nanometers.
3. Stefan Hell

2013 Nobel Chemistry: computer model to predict chemical reactions- to make new
drugs.
now lets check a Related topic from October week 2, 2014:
Confocal microscope

technology
Indian scientists designed this microscope
Using funding from CSIR Council for Scientic and Industrial Research.
Broad Spectrum Confocal Microscope can generate 3D images of objects.
Uses Infra-red beams and patented crystal bres.
Imported microscope of this quality =4 cr.
Desi microscope: ~1.5 cr.
Nobel Economics 2014

Jean Tirole (France)
If Government doesnt regulate private rms => Private monopoly=> new players cant
enter => lack of competition => high prices => market failure.
Jean designed frameworks on how should Government regulate private telecom,

banking, mfg. industry etc. without nationalizing them. How to prevent cartels and
monopolies.
Following his model, many developing countries began disinvestment and privatization
of Public sector units in the 80s and 80s.
Economics Nobel is given by Swedens Central bank.
2013 Nobel: How market prices of bonds/stocks/real-estate move.
Nobel Peace Prize 2014

Given jointly to Kailash Satyarthi (India) and Malala Yousafzai (Pakistan).
Kailash Satyarthi
Electrical Engineer from Madhya Pradesh.
Head of Bachpan Bachao Andolan (BBA) the Save Childhood Movement
freed 80,000 children from factories, brick-kilns, carpet making and other bonded labour
jobs. Even sustained attacks from local maa while doing that.
helped in their education and rehabilitation.
Member of UNESCO group on Education for all.
Wants the world leaders to include child-slavery abolition in PostHas won Robert F. Kennedy International Human Rights Award (US) and several such
civilian award in Spain, Italy and Europe.
Government of India never gave him any Padma award.
European Government nominated him for this Nobel Prize.
Only three people from India got Peace Nobel
1979: Mother Teresa
2007: RK Pachauri with Al Gore (climate change)
2014: Satyarthi.
Malala Yousafzai
Only two pakistanis won Nobel so far.
1979: Physics- Abdus Salam for subatomic particles
2014: Peace- Malala for advocating girl education.

Malala is youngest person to win Nobel (age 17). Broke record of Lawrence Braggs (25 years
old, Physics noble-1915).
She hails from Village Mingora, Swat Valley, Pakistan.
Wrote a BBC-blog pseudonym Gul Makai (2009).
Advocated girl child education in Pakistan. Hence Talibans did not like it. NOT ONE BIT.
so, they shot her in the head.
Government sent her to UK for treatment. Currently living in Birmingham, crusading for
education via speeches, books, and social media.
Malala has written following Books:
1. Im Malala (co-author Christina Lamb) (http://www.ipkart.com/am-malala-girl-stood-upeducation-shot-taliban-english/p/itmdz6sxcvgbdhpf?
2. Malala: the girl who stood up for education and changed the world (co-author Patricia
McCormick). (http://www.ipkart.com/malala/p/itmdzwrfhyr8ahpf?
pid=DGBDZM8JKCZHG2JE&ad=mrunalrugm)
Tokenism in Peace prize 2014?
2013 Peace prize given to Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons.
(OPCW)- Therefore still important for GS2: International bodies. UPSC occasionally ask
stu after it becomes outdated, same happened with Chandrayan.
Anyways, back to the topic- 2014: Malala and Satyarthi got peace prize. Some people see
Joint Prize to an Indian and a Pakistani- as a symbolic-gesture to stop the border
tension.
But Nobel Committee claried, this wasnt linked with India-Pak LoC ring at all.
Malala selection done in context of ISIS extremism.
Satyarthi was a genuine activist nominated by European parliament. (And not a
Jholachhap NGO working with NAC or planning commission.)
Both were less controversial than other contenders- Edward Snowden, Pope Francis.
Nobel Committees message is: Hindus, Muslims, Indians, Pakistanis all need to join a
common struggle for education and against extremism.
Noble Literature 2014

(Aggravating questions Im interview, which will not be asked cause by

then some other country will be attacked by some one else)
Q. Isnt Malala over rated? She didnt do anything expect being shot
at.What do you think?
Q. Is Nobel racist ?
Q. Is Nobel motivated by western agenda?

Warning: Dont start a comment war, dont get angry, its a time bomb
meant for you to diuse not be wreck havoc. No one prescribes to this!
Mehul
Jude, Ofourse Malala is overrated!

She is given half dozen prizes every year for last 2-3 years for same
achievement.
Im tired of memorizing the list. And her interview-answers seem
too articial and tutored for a person of her age.
Nobita
here are other examples

2009-peace prize to barack obama.
2012- Nobel Prize (Literature) to Mo Yan.
These prizes let Norway to punch above its weight.

An interesting fact-the Mosers who have got medicine nobel are indeed a
couple which is a rare thing in nobel.

In fact Mosers were the fth couple to win Nobel Prize. Here are
the other four:

2. Irene and Freidrich Joliot (Irene was Curies daughter)

Mrunal Sir! Nobel Peace Prize, 2007 was awarded to Al Gore Jr (former US
VP) and IPCC (not Dr.R.K. Pachauri). Though I know that Dr. R.K. Pachauri
has been the head of the organisation since 2002 but does that mean the
award given to any organisation is equivalent to award given to that
organizations head, as an individual? Please reply.
Deepak
Exactly..It was given to IPCC and not Pachauri..Its a grave error.

Yes, you are right. It was given to IPCC . R K Pachauri took the
awad on behalf of IPCC

Sir, please recheck. I guess Mr. Pachouri was not conferred with a Nobel
Prize, he just received it on behalf of the IPCC being the head of it.
