Properties and Functionalization of Graphene

Dinadayalane Tandabany has been Associate Professor of Chemistry at Clark Atlanta University, USA, since 2014. After being awarded his Ph.D in Chemistry from Pondicherry University, India, he took up a research position at Jackson State University, USA, where he conducted high performance computational investigations of structures, reactivities, electronic, transport and mechanical properties of carbon based nanomaterials, and taught a number of classes in general and computational chemistry prior to taking up his current role. He has co-authored over 70 papers and 8 book chapters, has been awarded a number of awards for his work, and has presented talks at numerous conferences. In addition, he actively works to help increase the number of underrepresented undergraduate and graduate students in computational chemistry and nanoscience research. Frank Hagelberg has been Professor of Physics in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at East Tennessee State University since 2013, where his research focuses on computational materials science. After completing his PhD in physics at the University of Bonn, Germany, he went on to positions at the University of Munich, State University of New York and Jackson State University before joining East Tennessee State University in 2007. He is a member of the American Physical Society, a reviewer for numerous international journals, is a regular contributor to both national and international conferences, has written 2 books and well over 100 peer-reviewed research papers
