Perera discovers potential coating agent for textiles that decomposes sweat - UMaine Research
Duwage Charitha Perera is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Chemistry. Her key research interest is to study the catalytic behavior of small metal clusters using density functional theory or DFT. She is originally from Sri Lanka. Most graduate students embark on a single research project, but Perera decided to finish the work she started as an undergraduate at the University of Ruhuna in addition to her graduate studies at the University of Maine. Perera explains, âI use the theory called density functional theory, which is quite a popular theory among not only theoretical chemis...
