I am a Professor of Physics at the Federal University of Mato Grosso (since 2013), specializing in light-matter interactions and charge transport phenomena in advanced materials. My research focuses on unveiling the photophysical and electrical properties of materials (including organic, hybrid, and nanostructured systems) to engineer efficient optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices. Through spectroscopic and electronic characterization techniques, I explore fundamental processes at material interfaces to bridge the gap between material science and device performance.
