Faculty
A Full Professor at the University of Valencia, he is the author/co-author of more than 120 research papers in different international journals and conference proceedings. Since 1996 he has or is supervising 12 PhD thesis, 12 masters/undergraduate projectse works all of them in the research field of quantum nanostructures and photonic/plasmonic structures. Since 1996, he has led 7 national projects, 4 bilateral integrated actions (France, Tunisia, Morocco), and participated in the European Network SANDIE. He is also an R&D consultant for InteNanoMat S.L.
He is integrated in the unit of research of Optoelectronic Materials and Devices (UMDO) and is responsible for the Lowdim research line at the Materials Science Institute (ICMUV) of the University of Valencia, Spain. He received the B.S., and Ph.D. degrees in physics from the University of Valencia in 1992 and 1998, respectively. During his PhD, he performed two research stays at the Hahn-Meitner Institute of Berlin (Germany). After a postdoctoral stay (1999-2001) at the French-Spanish beamline at the LURE Synchrotron (France), he set up a research line devoted to the electronic characterization of materials by photoemission (UPS and XPS) at the University of Valencia. Since 2002 he occupies a permanent position at the University of Valencia and became Full Professor in October 2019. During this last period, he has also performed several research stays at SOLEIL Synchrotron (France), at University of California Berkeley (USA), and at Heriot-Watt University (UK). His current research interests include two-dimensional materials (layered semiconductors, topological insulators, and graphene), electronic and optoelectronic characterization of low-dimensional materials and related devices.
