Sathish Rajendran works in materials science, focusing on nanomaterials such as carbon dots, MXenes, and metal oxide nanostructures for applications including chemical sensing, water treatment (removing pollutants like antibiotics and endocrine disruptors), and energy devices such as batteries, solar cells, and supercapacitors. Much of the work involves designing small-scale fluorescent or catalytic materials and testing their performance for detecting contaminants or improving energy-related device efficiency.
