Professor at the São Carlos Institute of Physics (IFSC), University of São Paulo (USP). Holds a degree in Physics (2009) from São Paulo State University (UNESP), and M.Sc. (2012) and Ph.D. (2016) degrees in Materials Science and Technology from the same university. Completed part of the Ph.D. as a visiting student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA (2014–2015). Conducted postdoctoral research at UNESP (2017–2023 and 2024) and at Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen (2021–2022), and was a visiting researcher at the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL), Portugal (2018). Worked as a Temporary Professor in the Department of Engineering, Physics and Mathematics at the Institute of Chemistry (IQ/UNESP), Araraquara campus (2024), and in the Department of Exact Sciences at the School of Agricultural and Veterinary Sciences (FCAV/UNESP), Jaboticabal campus (2025). Research experience includes the synthesis of semiconducting oxide materials, particularly one-dimensional (1D) tin oxide-based nanostructures with different stoichiometries, as well as the fabrication and characterization of gas sensor devices.
Research Interests includes: Synthesis of nanostructured semiconducting materials, with emphasis on one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures; Electrical and electronic properties of semiconducting metal oxides; Chemoresistive gas sensors based on nanostructured semiconducting materials; Effects of heterojunctions (p–n) and homojunctions (n–n and p–p) in gas sensors based on nanostructures and thin films; Photoactivation and light-assisted processes in gas sensors; Gas sensors based on field-effect transistors (FETs); In operando techniques applied to the investigation of reception and transduction mechanisms in gas sensors.
