We are delighted to share the outstanding achievement of our PhD student Ms W.A.Wijewickrama (Waruni), who won the Second place in poster presentation competition at the 11th International Conference on Multidisciplinary Approaches 2025, organized by the Faculty of Graduate Studies, USJ held on 3rd April 2025.
She was awarded this for the research carried out on Growth and structural analysis of a heterostructure of CVD grown carbon nanotubes on Cuprous oxide which is grown by a boiling Cu plate in copper sulphate in the Engineering, Physical Sciences and Technological Innovation category.
This research presented a novel work in hybrid nanostructures. It is mainly focused on fabricating Carbon nanotubes using chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) and combine with cuprous oxide to build a heterostructure to use as an electrode, especially in fields like energy storage and electronic devices.
This award reflects both the strong scientific foundation of her and the team and the engaging way in which she presented their findings
We extend our heartfelt congratulations and look forward to further successes in her research journey.
