Prof. Susana Fernández

DEGREE Obtained the graduate degree in Physics from the Complutense University of Madrid in June 1999. Subsequently, she obtained the PhD from the Department of Electronic Engineering at Polytechnic University of Madrid in October 2004. RESEARCH CAREER After that, she worked as a postdoctoral researcher on ohmic contacts for GaN-based HEMTs under contracts with the Centre for Research and Development of the Navy (CIDA). In February 2007, she joined the Solar Photovoltaic Unit from the Energy, Environmental and Technological Research Centre (CIEMAT). Her main research focus is the development of a broad range of semiconductor materials by magnetron sputtering for energy applications, more specifically transparent conductive and metal transition oxides and non-hidrogenated amorphous silicon. Currently, she is the responsible of two magnetron sputtering systems devoted to the material fabrication.
