Speaker's Details

Prof. Alicia de Andrés

Materials Science Institute of Madrid (CSIC), Spain

Prof. Alicia de Andrés is PhD in Physics by the Autonomous University of Madrid and, since 2008, Research Professor at the Materials Science Institute in Madrid – Spanish Council for Scientific Research (ICMM - CSIC).  Leader of the Graphene based hybrid materials group and head of the Optical Spectroscopies Laboratory. She has authored over 150 ISI publications and leaded or participated in projects funded by national, regional and European agencies as well as industrial companies.

Her research over the past 15 years has focused on the development and study of materials with applications in spintronics and optoelectronics seeking the correlation between properties and structure/morphology at nano and micro scales. She is regular user of synchrotron radiation facilities. At present her interests are mainly focused in:

  • Graphene and graphene oxide for optoelectronics: design and fabrication of hybrid materials with optimal synergy of organic semiconductors, inorganic nanoparticles and graphene properties for applications as transparent electrodes and nanostructured active layers in PVs, LEDs, sensors and SERS imaging.
  • Materials for lighting: Study, design and growth of hybrid materials and devices for applications in lighting, optical thermometry and phosphors. The focused materials are rare earth doped nanoparticles and metal organic frameworks with rare earths.
