Arbeids- og kompetanseområde

Professor Dhayalan Velauthapillai, heads the research group onAdvanced Nano materials for Clean Energy and Health Applications (ANCEHA) at Western Norway University of Applied Sciences (HVL), Campus Bergen, Norway.

Dhayalan Velauthapillai is a professor in Physics and Technology and has versatile research activities in the field of physics and nanotechnology. The ANCEHA research group led by him focuses on mathematical modelling, computer simulation, synthesis, characterization of advanced nano materials with particular emphasis on third and fourth generation solar cells, Hydrogen production and energy storage. The research group has the vision to develop low weight, flexible and low cost solar cell technologies based on metal oxides, dyes, polymers and perovskite materials and concentrates on computational and experimental studies on advanced nanomaterials for clean energy and health applications such as tissue engineering. ANCEHA is also involved in research on energy policies and energy management. Dhayalan has also research activities in electromagnetic modeling, crystal optics, diffractive optics, microlenses and focusing and propagation of electromagnetic waves in isotropic and isotropic medium. The research group is also involved in both simulation and synthesis for nano materials for tissue engineering.

Professor Dhayalan Velauthapillai leads several international projects funded by Norwegian Agency for Interntional Cooperation and Quality Enhancement in Higher Education (DIKU), Norwegian Embassy of Sri Lanka. He partners also in a NFR project lead by University of Bergen in the filed of tissue engineering. The international network led by Dhayalan consists of academics, researchers, PhD/MSc students from India (http://cit-hib-incp2014.com/) and Sri Lanka (http://project.jfn.ac.lk/hrncet/). Currently, 5 PhD students at HVL, 13 PhD students at CIT, India, PSG, India, Alagappa University, India and 1 PhD from Univ. of Peradheniya, Sri Lanka and 9 MPHIL/PhD students at Univ. of Jaffna, Sri Lanka are attached  to the ANCEHA research group.

ANCEHA has organized several international conferences, workshops and symposia in collaboration with their international partners.
