Graduate in Physics from Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho, UNESP (1993). Master in Physic from Universidade Estadual de Campinas (1996) and Ph.D. in Physics from Universidade Estadual de Campinas (2001). Post-Doc in Physics at Ames Laboratory - Iowa State University (2001 - 2003) and Hiroshima University (2003 - 2008). Worked from 2009 to Jun/2020 as professor at UFABC/Brazil and since Aug/2020 as a associate professor at Iowa State University. My research interests lie in the areas of thermoelectric, superconducting and magnetic materials, critical phenomena, phase transitions, and understanding of the fundamental properties of these materials. In more general terms, my present and future interests involve the understanding of novel electron-correlation effects in intermetallic systems (superconductivity, Kondo effect, heavy-fermion and mixed-valence behavior, non-Fermi liquid phenomena, metal-insulator transitions, quasi-one-dimensional magnetism, strongly correlated electron systems-spin/valence fluctuations) employing temperature and field dependent transport, magnetic and specific heating measurements.

A significant improvement in quality of life of mankind in recent times has been achieved through the development of new materials in various areas of science. The unimaginable technological advances of recent decades has allowed engineering to improve the preparation and characterization of new nanostructured and massive materials, with the concomitant production of new electronic, magne…
This project goal is the consolidation of one research line that the Group of Quantum Materials has developed since was created in 2009. It is proposed to purchase equipment for growing materials, a set of books that describe ternary phase diagrams and some material to maintain the regularity of a laboratory activity. The search for materials that present a good thermal efficiency has int…
This project aims at the synthesis of rare earth metal nanoparticles-A(1-x)M(x), where A = Cu, Ag, Al, Pt and M is a 3d transition metals (M = Fe, Co, Mn) and 4f (M = Gd, Nd, Er) varying the chemical composition and the average particle size (2-15 nm). Concerning the composition of two extremes will be studied: the case diluted with x <0.01 (magnetic species isolated within the particle),…

The search for materials that present good thermoelectric efficiency has intensified in recent years. However, this has been a great challenge since the parameters that determine the efficiency of all the thermoelectric materials (electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and thermoelectric potential) are interdependent, thus becoming extremely difficult to optimize the efficiency. In…
