INNOVATION IN TECHNOLOGIES: Challenges of Basic Research correlates fundamental research to applications in technology. Various topics of current interest which includes the study of the non-isochronicity using non-linear dynamics nanocomposites of graphite-clay and nanoporous silicon, properties of perovskites, vapour-liquid equilibrium for binary chemical systems, sensing of Mg2+ and Ca2+ by ?-diketones through inhibition of PET and the study of the water quality of fresh bodies are addressed. Research papers on applications of cryptography in dynamic security systems, design of optical comb filters using polarizer and analyzer, application of birefringent lens in optical imaging system, image processing have been discussed highlighting technological applications along with research papers on daylighting, novel material used in orthopaedics and dentistry and improvement of the quality of Indian coal. Nuclear research has taken a giant step after the discovery of accelerators. Papers on current topics of nuclear research have also been presented for the benefit of the readers. This is therefore a modest attempt for the first time where we endeavoured to inculcate deep impact of the research work of fundamental science in technology.
