Contributions to Research

Dr. S. Anandan hails from Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. For the past 20 years, he has been actively engaged in research and teaching in the area of Solar Energy and nanomaterials. He has developed a new laboratory (Nanomaterials & Solar Energy Conversion Lab) in the Department of Chemistry, National Institute of Technology, Trichy, into a full-fledged one to be recognized by national and international agencies for research. Further, he had a collaborative project with University of Melbourne, Australia, University of Alicante, Spain, Feng Chia University, Taiwan and Moscow State University,


Russia funded by DST India. Apart from these, his general contributions towards the welfare of the institute and education are many, which may not be explained in a single word. Under his guidance ten Ph.D. and thirty one M.Sc. students completed their degrees. In addition, twelve Ph.D. and four M.Sc. students are pursuing research under his guidance. His research work to date is largely multi-disciplinary involving Nanomaterials, sonochemistry, photochemistry, photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, Fuel cell catalysts, photosplitting of water molecules, biomolecule interactions, sensors, supercapacitors, OLED applications, organic, inorganic & polymer solar cells.
