I am a married woman. I am also a working woman. I love what I do. And I am actually paid to do what I love. Yet, everyday I return home from work with a heavy heart. No. My workplace poses no threats. Although many working women across the world would disagree with me; but fortunately, I am not one of them. My greatest threat is my returning home to my in-laws and tolerating their snide comments on my being out all day. The men in the house can do it. That is not a problem. But my going and staying out to work is a matter of domestic debate. I usually don’t retaliate. But I cannot help brooding over, from time to time, how unfair life still is towards women. When you really think about it, the fact that women all over the world are still fighting for equal rights defies all logic. Humans have mastered flight, walked on the moon and created the internet but women still can’t be trusted to make autonomous decisions about their own bodies, be guaranteed freedom from violence or harassment or get paid the same amount as men for doing the same damn work. From time to time, many women have voiced their disgruntlement over the gender inequality. Anita Desai is one such powerful and persuasive voice among the writers, endeavouring in all her works to reflect the how the female autonomy strives to prove its existence in a strictly patriarchal cultural pattern. This paper seeks to refer to one of her novels, Bye, Bye Black Bird (1971) to highlight the way man-woman relationships are bedevilled by cultural encounters. The novel deals with alienation of an English lady, Sarah, married to Adit, an immigrant from India, who spends her days wallowed in the guilt of committing a mistake of marrying an Indian in her own society. In spite of being a woman from the so-called advanced west, she is quiet, meek and submissive; while Adit, behaves most of the time, like a typical Indian male, conservative, rigid and patriarchal. Through Sarah, Desai draws our attention to the annihilation of self that marriage involves for a female, through a recurring theme of insecurity, fragmentation, homelessness and the quest for identity among different communities across the world.

Game-based learning makes learners collaborative, communicative and interactive. Strategic games improve the functioning of the brain. Gaming creates a dynamic atmosphere and develop skills while emotionally connecting the learners to the subject matter. The research paper focuses on the use of games inside the classroom and favours games to be a good teaching method for teaching noun phrases. It suggests the use of experimental method where a pre-test and a post-test will be used for data collection. It has suggested five language games for teaching noun phrases for analysing the impact of games for teaching noun phrases and their impact on language comprehension and language production. It also highlights the further scope of research.

The advantages of pulsed excimer lasers for semiconductor processing are reviewed. Extensive comparisions of the quality of annealilng of ion‐implanted Si obtained with XeCl and ruby lasers have been made. The results indicate that irrespective of the large differences in the optical properties of Si and UV and visible wave‐lengths, the efficienccy of usage of the incident energy for annealing is comparable for the two lasers. However, because of the excellent optical beam quality, the XeCl lasser can provide superior control of the surface melting and the resulting junction depth. Furthermore, the concentrations of electrically active point defects in the XeCl laser annealed region are 2−3 orders of magnitude lower than that obtained from ruby or Nd:YAG lasers. All these results seem to suggest that XeCl lasers should be suitable for fabricating not only solar cells but also the more advanced device structures required for VLSI or VHSIC applications.

Abstract Active matrix liquid crystal displays belong to one of the fastest growing fields in display research and development. Several pocket TVs using this technology are already available commercially. High quality displays for TV and instrumentation require an understanding and optimization of liquid crystal material parameters. We have, therefore, investigated the influence of the elastic, dielectric and optic properties on the electrical resistance of the liquid crystal as well as on the response times and the viewing angle dependence of active matrix displays. Based on correlations derived from our investigations, we have developed new liquid crystals which have suitable properties and a very high electrical resistivity.
