Studies on Optical Properties of ZnS Thin Film by Thermal Evaporation Technique
The most significant process for optical coating is the variant of vacuum deposition. Zinc sulfide having direct and large band gap which is use in optoelectronics. By using ZnS material in thermal evaporation technique and characterizing the minimum reflectance and maximum transmittance in visible wavelength and energy gap increases with increasing thickness having direct and large band gap. When ZnS thin films doped with the similar material then the transmission band can be widened in IR region. On this method, we make many applications over IR windows and scintillation detectors and other electronic devices.

An Epidemiological Investigation of Dengue Outbreak in Shri Muktsar Sahib District, Punjab, India 2012.
Dengue is a serious and worldwide spreading illness caused by the mosquito Aedes aegypti bite. Seasonal variation in dengue outbreak has been noticed by many years and it is a systematically increase. The study was designed to apply district epidemiological field that is time, place and person. With the other epidemiological determinant including finding the etiology behind dengue outbreak. Data was collected at Shri Muktsar sahib with the reported cases of dengue at Guru Gobind Singh Medical College including the convenient sampling technique with total enumeration. Case confirmation was done by serological examination for dengue fever. Out of 812 reported cases, 399 were positive for dengue. Dengue outbreak caused higher morbidity which might have resulted in morbidity and fatality of dengue fever in district At that point the situation was turned into the outbreak. It has been seen at Shri Muktsar Sahib District, from being a sporadic illness, outbreaks of dengue have now become a regular occurrence. The reason behind this outbreak is water storage and improper sanitation.

A Cross Sectional Study for Evaluation of Association between Hypertensive Retinopathy with Serum Lipid Profile in Patients of Essential Hypertension in Rural Hospital.
To evaluate the role of serum lipid profile on fundus changes in hypertensive patients and to correlate the grades of hypertensive retinopathy with components of lipid profile. Material and method: A cross-sectional prospective study was carried out in 100 patients attending the Ophthalmology department who were diagnosed to have systemic hypertension. The stage of hypertension was classified according to JNC 7 criteria. Patients suffering from diabetes, myopia, having hazy media and other posterior segment disorders and giving consent were excluded from the study. Their detailed ophthalmological examination was carried out and also their evaluation by the physician was done. All the patients were investigated for fasting serum lipid profile done by endpoint method using a spectrophotometer. Fasting was for 8 hours. Hypertensive fundus changes were evaluated using the Keith – Wagener, and Barker (KWB) Classification. Discussion: Out of 100 patients with essential hypertension, 70 (70%) had retinopathy and the remaining 30 (30%) patients had no retinopathy. Mean age having retinopathy was 63 years. All patients having hypertension for more than 10 years had retinopathy. The severity of hypertension correlated well with severity of retinopathy in our study (p< 0.0009). No sex preponderance toward developing retinopathy was found (p< 0.58). A positive correlation of hypertensive retinopathy was found with total cholesterol(p<0.0001), low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol (p<0.0001), serum triglycerides(p<0.0001), and a low density lipoprotein: high-density lipoprotein(LDL:HDL) ratio(p<0.0008). Conclusion: This study helps to assess the association between hypertensive retinopathy in patients with essential hypertension with an altered serum lipid profile, with the aim of preserving vision.

Building a Micro-ATM for Financial Inclusion and Rural Banking
In current scenario especially in rural areas banks and MFI’s are gathering client’s information manually in the record book and it’s not cost effective to install ATM’s everywhere, so we develop a micro-ATM which can be used to perform all financial transactions. The main advantage of this is we can overcome the delay factor and moreover in earlier practices there were no authentication procedures with the help of biometric we can gain the higher level of authorization. With this approach we can reduce the usage of paper and automation of work can be gained. The application built on this micro-ATM is commercially available but we are developing and contributing to open source platform.

Implementation of Six Sigma in Indian Manufacturing Industries
Six Sigma is the concept of improving the quality by reducing process variations, making continuous improvements, reducing defect rates and improving the processes. The Definitions & Concepts of Six Sigma have been changing since its evolution as per the requirements of time & market conditions. Initially, the concept of Six Sigma focused on defect reduction, then on cost reduction along with value addition and now on value creation, improving the process capability making the process more reliable along with reducing eight wastes of industry & improving the competitiveness of a product with least possible costs incurred on it. This study presents the literature review of the works already done in the field of Six Sigma Implementation by the various authors till now. The findings of this paper will be the basis of my further research in this field by developing appropriate research methodology needed to achieve the objectives set by me for my research work.
