About

I, Dr. SAKTHIVEL PERUMAL, am a highly motivated and an enthusiastic young scholar. Currently, working as a postdoctoral research fellow at department of chemistry, Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST), Republic of Korea from sep. 2021. I pursued my doctoral degree in physics, at alagappa university, karaikudi, tamilnadu, India (Oct-2020). I have been working in the field of semiconducting thin films and nanostructured materials for energy conversion and storage applications to make a sustainable society in renewable energy sector. Particularly focusing on solar cells, green hydrogen from water electrolysis, and supercapacitor devices. I have good theoretical/ experimental skills in preparing thin films, nanostructured materials, and their analysis. Moreover, excellent hands-on experience in device fabrication and characterization. I have attained industrial training in device fabrication at Indian prestigious institutes of IIT Bombay and IISc Bangalore. I also gained research experience at foreign prestigious Institutes of Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore (6 months), and Hanyang University, South Korea (3 months). I had worked on a few major projects sponsored by the National Research Foundation (NRF), Korea, the University Grants Commission (India), and the Department of Science and Technology (India). Based on my knowledge and experience, I have published 47 research articles in highly reputed international journals I have received several fellowships and awards like excellency in research, GIST, (2023), Postdoctoral Research Fellowship (2021), Senior Research Fellowship (SRF) (2017-2020), Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) (2015-2020) by UGC, India, a best researcher paper award and several best research presentation awards in various international/ national level conferences. I have a good ability for independent thinking, planning, and execution of research work in my research area. Moreover, my good team spirit makes team members feel comfortable with me. I am a very punctual, pleasant, and transparent man.
