Andrés Cantarero is Full Prof. in Condensed Matter Phys. at the Applied Physics Department of the University of Valencia and researcher at the ICMOL. He did the Ph. D. in 1986 on the Photomagnetoelectric effect in InSe and moved to the Max Planck Institute for a postdoc under the supevision of Prof. Manuel Cardona where he started to work on magneto-optics. During the postdoc he did experiments on Raman under magnetic, electric fields and pressure. and started developing some phenomenological models. He returned to Valencia in 1989. He has been funded by the Ministry of Education, the Generalitat Valenciana and by the European Union all these years, leading more than 30 projects. He has around 400 publications, 4 book chapters and participated in more than 400 international and national Conferences. He organized or co-organized a tens of Conferences. He has 3 patents. He has been referee of many scientific journals, selection committees of University positions, scientific panels at the ESRF, EU, the NSF, several European countries, and the Ministry of Education in Spain.
Khagesh Tanwar is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Crisol lab, ICMol. He is currently studying the thermoelectric and dynamic magnetic properties of 2D materials. Prior to this, he worked as research associate for 8 months at Deakin University, Australia, where he explored flat bands in twisted bilayer graphene by DFT calculations. As a PhD candidate at Deakin University, he worked on experimental and theoretical development of Li-Metal Polysulfide (Li-MSx) batteries. He worked as an assistant research fellow at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (India), where he worked on oxide thermoelectric materials and Crystallography. During his bachelors and masters studies at Indian Institute of Technology (Banaras Hindu University), Varanasi (India) he explored oxide-ion conductors for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells.

Filippo Mione received his Bachelor and Master degree in Experimental Physics at the University of Trento. During his formation he developed a particular interest for Optics and Photonics, especially from the experimental point of view. He is currently pursuing his PhD, focusing on the implementation of 2D materials to realize chiral light states and on the light matter interaction at the 2D limit.
