Graduate Program in Physics at UFSC, Florianópolis

O PROGRAMA DE PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO EM FÍSICA convida para o seminário:

Opportunities, recent results, and my personal experience in large facilities
Dr. João Elias Figueiredo Soares Rodrigues
ALBA Synchrotron Light Source, Barcelona – Espanha

*Evento de presença obrigatória da disciplina seminários

Resumo:
In this seminar, I will briefly summarize what I have done so far in the European facilities concerning new materials for energy-recovery, unusual magnetic properties in perovskite materials, and coupling of different experimental techniques to build a complete scenario on the physical properties of a particular material. Currently, I have a post-doc scientific position at the beamline MSPD (Materials Science Powder Diffraction) of the ALBA Synchrotron Light Source (Barcelona, Spain). I have obtained a PhD degree in Applied Physics at University of São Paulo (2017), master degree (2012), and bachelor (2010) in Physics at Federal University of Maranhão. I was visiting postdoc fellow at the Instituto de Ciencias de Materiales de Madrid (2018-2020) at the Jose Antonio Alonso’s laboratory. From 2020-2023, I had a post-doc scientific position at the beamlines ID24/BM23 (High-brilliance X-ray absorption spectroscopy) of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF, Grenoble, FR). My research program is focused on high-pressure synthesis and characterization of novel energy materials for mainly thermoelectric applications. Other research activity in the field of high-pressure synthesis includes transition metal oxides with unusual electronic and magnetic properties. General research interest is in materials physics, including vibrational spectroscopy, electrical and magnetic characterization, and structural modeling. I am a frequent user of synchrotron and neutrons facilities (X-ray and neutron diffraction, X-ray absorption) applied to the determination of crystal and local atomic properties of different materials. I have more than 55 articles with more than 550 citations.
