I was graduated in Full Degree in Physics at the Federal University of São Carlos-UFSCar (1981), Msc in Physics at the State University of Campinas-UNICAMP (1985), and doctorate in Physics at The University of Manchester (1993), supervised by the Professor Michael Arthur Moore. I am currently an Associate Professor at the São Paulo State University-UNESP. My area of expertise is in Condensed Matter Physics with emphasis on Superconductivity. My interest in research is more focused on superconductivity of confined systems. For this, I became a specialist in developing methods of numerical solution of the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations (TDGL), for systems either in the presence of applied magnetic field or transport current. More recently, I am using this technique to solve the TDGL equations for multi-band superconductors, atomically thin superconductors, and conventional superconductors em three dimensions.

The main goal of the present project is the study of mesoscopic superconductors with finite thickness. Due to the recent progress in fabrication techniques, it has become possible the manufacturing of superconducting electronic devices in the nanometric scale. Once the presence of external currents is of fundamental importance to the proper functioning of these devices, the study of super…
Since the discovery of modern techniques of fabrication of superconductor sof very small size (films of thickness of order of nanometers and length and width of order of micrometers), in the last two decades people have become more interested, both from the theoretical and experimental point of view, in the magnetic and structural properties of the vortex lattice in nanostructured materia…
In this work we investigate the dynamics of vortices for a mesoscopic superconducting disk. Within the TDGL approach, no vortex configuration is assumed a priori, neither if any number of vortex has already penetrated the sample. Under an external applied magnetic field, should we have any nucleation of vortices, they will spontaneously be formed at the surface and then find the equilibri…
This research project aims to investigate the effects of heat diffusion in three-dimensional type-I superconductors under the application of transport currents. Type-I superconductors exhibit unique properties, such as the conduction of electric current without dissipation, occurring below a critical temperature. However, when subjected to high intensities of DC electric current, thereby …
In the last years, with the experimental realization of superconducting materials where more than one electronic band plays an important role in the superconducting state, multiband superconductivity has gained attention in both experimental and theoretical literature. Nevertheless, details of the microscopic parameters and the magnetic behavior in those materials are still in debate. One…
The formalism of the time dependent ginzburg-Landau equations (TDGL) has been now successfully used in a wide range of problems involving the vortex state of superconducting samples of different types and shapes. In particular, the effects of a thermal gradient in the vortex configuration of a type II mesoscopic superconductors have been recently studied. The aim of this project is to ext…
Advances in nanofabrication techniques of materials over the last two decadeshave enabled important achievements in the study of superconductors in the meso and nanoscopic scales. It is well known that superconductorsof low dimensionality, with size of the fundamental lengths $\xi$ (coherence length) and $\lambda$ (London penetration length) exhibit important effects that are not observed…
