Biography
Nuno Ferreira a PhD (2014) in Physics Engineering, nowadays, a pos-doc researcher at i3N, Physics Department and CICECO – Materials science and Ceramics Department at Aveiro University – Portugal. Had participated as collaborator and fellowship in several R&D projects on material science. Experience on study and development of ceramic based materials prepared through conventional methods (melting, solid stated) and focus in laser processing (crystal growth – LFZ and surface sintering). Present sample characterization skills on different techniques such as, electrical conductivity and magnetic properties of various oxide materials. Current focus materials: thermoelectrics, ferroelectrics and glass matrices doped with transition metals and rare earth for energy storage and conversion applications. Main expertise is relate to magnetic and electrical properties of materials and laser processing.
