Dedicated to Professor Onkar Nath Srivastava (1942-2021)
Prof. Onkar Nath Srivastava was an Indian material physicist, an Emeritus
professor of Banaras Hindu University (BHU) and the vice president for India
and South Asia of the International Association for Hydrogen Energy, who is
known for his contributions to the disciplines of nanotechnology and hydrogen
energy. He is the author of two books and over 440 scientific papers and a
recipient of several honors including Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar award, the
highest Indian award in the science and technology categories. The
Government of India awarded him the fourth highest civilian honour of the
Padma Shri, in 2016, for his contributions to science and engineering. Prof.
Srivastava was born on the last day of the year 1942 in Varanasi, Uttar
Pradesh, India. He secured his master's degree in Physics (M.Sc.) in 1961 from
BHU and followed it up with a doctoral degree (Ph.D.) from the same
institution, under the guidance of renowned physicist Ajit Ram Verma, in
1966. After doing his post doctoral research at Cornell University, USA, he
returned to India to start his career as a lecturer at Banaras Hindu University
where he served in different capacities as that of a reader, professor, head of
the department of physics and the coordinator of the Centre of Advance
Studies-Hydrogen Energy Centre. After his superannuation from service, he
continues his association with the university as a professor emeritus and as an
associate faculty member of Condensed Matter Experiment research program
of the university.
He has undertaken several projects for various government agencies;
Nanoscience and Technology of the Department of Science and Technology
(2005–2010), Support to Hydrogen Energy Centre (2007–2012),
Development & Demonstration of Hydrogen Catalytic Combustion Cookers
(2007–2010), Development & Demonstration of Hydrogen Fueled three
wheelers (2009–2012), Mission Mode Project on Hydrogen Storage Materials
(Hydride) (2009–2014), all of the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy and
Synthesis Characterization and Properties of Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes
(2009–2012) of the Defence Research and Development Organization
(DRDO) are some of the notable ones. He has mentored 57 doctoral students.
He is also an elected fellow of the Asia Pacific Academy of Materials,
International Academy of Physical Sciences and the New York Academy of
Sciences.
