The activities to be carried out at the Physics Institute of the University of São Paulo (IFUSP) involve the execution of work that is within the scope of the Thematic Research Project "Materials by design: from quantum materials to energy applications", in collaboration with researchers from UFABC and CNPEM. In a first stage, we will focus on the following topics related to interfaces an…
Advances in many technologies such as renewable and sustainable energy, quantum computation, data storage, and different types of sensors for applications ranging from health to agriculture, depend on our ability to design and realize materials with desired/optimal properties. In this perspective, materials discovery and design intimately depend on joint efforts between materials simulati…
Perovskites are materials with the chemical formula ABX3 and crystal structure composed commonly by corner-sharing octahedra. Materials with this crystal structure can have a huge variety of applications, including ferroelectrics and more recently photovoltaics. This last application uses halide perovskites, where the X element is a halide. Perovskites can also belong to the class of quan…
The use of halide perovskites in solar cells and other devices continues to attract the attention of researchers worldwide, and efficiencies in energy conversion of almost 30% have been reported. A current limitation for the proper commercialization of these devices is the reduced stability of the involved materials, which are relatively unstable to exposure to moisture causing phase sepa…

Hybrid perovskites may supply the growing needenergy consumption combined with the depletion of resourcesfrom non-renewable sources due to its superior characteristics in applicationsin solar cells, in addition to their possible applicationsin energy storage devices and in sensors and LEDs. Additionally, these materials serve as a platformfor the study of physical mechanisms, such as Rash…
Quantum effects control many of the properties of materials and, sometimes, these effects lead to the discovery of unusual phenomena. Materials that present these characteristics are usually classified as quantum materials. One of these unusual behaviors is the existence of anti-doping in some compounds. Instead of increasing the conductivity, doping leads to an increase of the resistivit…
Hybrid perovskites have been largely studied for application in solar cells, LEDs and other electronic devices. They are materials with simple synthesis, low cost and high performance that makes them a promise for clear energy and a substitutional technology for silicon. Even though the large number of studies in their properties, there are several aspects misunderstood and associated wit…

Doping is a central strategy in tuning the electronic properties of quantum materials, often giving rise to emergent phenomena such as unconventional superconductivity or metal-insulator transitions, for example. However, understanding how the doped charge carriers interact with the lattice and the pre-existing electronic structure remains a significant challenge-particularly due to the p…
Halide perovskites belongs to the semiconductor materials class with a high potential for applications in photovoltaics devices, especially in solar cells. The low cost of production, easy fabrication and the high performance makes this materials the possible candidates to replace the actual technologic based on silicon.
