About:
Hariharan earned his B.Tech from Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Coimbatore and completed his M.S. at IIT Madras, Chennai, India. Outside the lab, he unwinds by getting lost in zig-zag puzzles and getting experimental in the kitchen with South Indian cooking—sometimes with delicious results, sometimes with smoke. Whether he’s decoding a tricky recipe or a puzzle, he enjoys the challenge, finding both to be the perfect escape.
Research:
Hariharan is a graduate student in the Chemical Engineering program with a research focus on electrochemical systems. He is particularly interested in understanding electrochemical interfaces, especially the structure and dynamics of the electrical double layer (EDL) at electrocatalyst surfaces. His work investigates how the EDL influences electron transfer and mass transport, with implications for electrocatalysis and energy conversion.Ìý
