About the Author

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 PhD 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.

Dr. Sathish-Kumar Kamaraj is a research professor at Instituto Polit�cnico

Nacional (IPN), Centro de Investigaci�n en Ciencia Aplicada y Tecnolog�a Avan-

zada, Unidad Altamira (IPN-CICATA, Altamira). He would like to express his grat-

itude to, the DirectorGeneral of Instituto Polit�cnico Nacional (IPN) and Director

of Centro de Investigaci�n en Ciencia Aplicada y Tecnolog�a Avanzada, Unidad

Altamira (CICATA Altamira) for their constant support and facilities, able to promote

the research activities. Extended his gratitude to the Secretaria de Investigaci�n y

Posgrado (SIP) for project number 20231443. He received B.Sc. in Botany special-

ized in Industrial Microbiology, master’s in Microbiology, and a postgraduate in

Chemical Information Technology at Madurai Kamaraj University, Tamil Nadu,

India. He obtained a Doctorate in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (2010–2014)

from The Centre for Research and Advanced Studies of the National Polytechnic

Institute (CINVESTAV-IPN), CDMX, Mexico, with a scholarship from the General

Directorate of International Relations-Secretary of Public Education Mexico (SEP-

Mexico). During the academic period, he received the Best Student Competition

Award at Battelle’s Second International Symposium on Bioremediation and Sustain-

able Environmental Technologies (2013) in Jacksonville, Florida, USA. His thesis

won the Best Ph.D. Thesis Award from the Mexican Hydrogen Society. His passion

for sustainable natural systems triggers him to integrate his knowledge of the various

ﬁelds to address the problems in the area of energy, environment, and health. He

registered various patents in the Mexican Institute of Industrial Property (IMPI)

and technology transfer to the industries. He also has relationships with govern-

ment agencies and the private sector for circumstantial decision-making. He served

as a guest editor and a reviewer in international journals. Extended his gratitude

to Mrs Kamaraj Mounika and Bbg Aarudhraa for their family support. Research
