Tentang Penulis
Dr. Shanmuga Sundar Dhanabalan is an accomplished researcher with a proven
track record in designing, developing, and translating micro- and nano-scale devices.
His primary objective is to create next-generation products that enhance quality of
life and well-being, making a significant contribution to society. He currently leading
a team ‘wearable and connected sensors’ at RMIT University, with a focus on mate-
rials, flexible and stretchable devices, wearables, optics, and photonics. He graduated
with a Ph D in flexible electronics in June 2017 and secured a competitive postdoctoral
fellowship from the Chilean government from 2018 to 2021. His studies have led to
publications in referred international journals, book chapters, and books in progress
as editor. He has presented plenary/keynote, invited talks and guest lectures, oral
and poster presentations at scientific meeting at various universities world-wide.
Several outcomes have been highlighted by scientific websites (such as Photonics
Media, USA). His research work has led to securing grants from Australian govern-
ment research schemes, such as the Cooperative Research Centres Projects, the ARC
Research Hub for Connected Sensors for Health, Victorian Medical Research Accel-
eration Fund, and the Advanced Manufacturing Growth Centre’s Commercialisation Fund. He has collaborations with universities from various countries, including India,
Australia, Chile, Mexico, and Bangladesh. He has served as a reviewer for over 20
prestigious specialist journals. He also served as a topical editor for highly reputed
journals including IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, IEEE Instrumenta-
tion and Measurement Magazine, IEEE, Energies, Computer and Electrical Engi-
neering. He is a part of the Editorial Board of American Journal of Optics and
Photonics. In addition, he served as a session chair and technical committee member
in various international conferences.
Dr. Arun Thirumurugan is a Academic Faculty at the University of ATACAMA
working on the development of magnetic nanocomposite for energy storage and
biological applications. He has completed his Ph.D. (2010–2015) at the National Institute of Technology (NIT), Tiruchirappalli, India. He has worked as a post-
doctoral fellow (2015–2017) at the Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar, India, and
then worked as a FONDECYT postdoctoral fellow (2017–2020) at the University of
Chile, Santiago, Chile. His research interests are synthesizing magnetic nanoparti-
cles, surface modification of nanomaterials for the potential applications in detox-
ification, photocatalyst, energy storage, and biomedical applications. Dr. Thirumu-
rugan acts as a reviewer for various journals from different eminent publishers. He is
editing a topical issue on magnetic nanomaterials and carbonaceous nanocomposites
in the Frontiers publishing group. He edited two books. He published more than 90
international journals, book chapters, and conference proceedings.
Dr. Ramesh Raju is a staff scientist at Aalto University. His research focuses on
III-V materials growth and fabrication for optoelectronics applications and 2D mate-
rials growth and fabrication for photonics applications. During his Ph.D. at Anna
University, Chennai, India, his research focused on III-Nitride materials growth
by metal organic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) for optoelectronics applications.
After obtaining his Ph.D. degree, he moved to China, where he worked as a post-doctoral researcher at the Nanophotonics Laboratory, College of Physics, Hunan
University (HNU), China. At HNU, he designed the growth setup for 2D material-
based heterostructure for photonics applications. Since he is experienced indifferent
growth, fabrication, and characterization skills, there is a natural scientific overlap
with optoelectronics photonics, nanotechnology, and micro and quantum activities.
In 2017, he started working with the optoelectronics and micro and quantum system
group at Aalto University, Finland. At Aalto University, his research is towards III-
Nitrides for optoelectronics and PEC water splitting applications. He published more
than 35 research articles/conference proceedings based on his work in India and other
international research at various universities. Dr. Ramesh Raju acts as a reviewer for
various journals from different eminent publishers.
