Diploma in Physics and PhD in Telecommunications Engineering from the Università degli Studi di Firenze in 2002 and 2006, respectively. Current research is focused on the study of the optical properties of metal-organic(inorganic) hetero-interfaces. Hetero-interfaces are used in the manufacture of optical devices in thin films and also synthesized on the surface of nanoparticles, obtained through the process of Pulsed Laser in different media. The nanomaterials produced cover a wide range of materials: metallic semiconductors, metal-carbon nanocomposites, and metallic quantum dots. The nanomaterials are used in external collaborations for nano-regulation in human cells, with emphasis on angiogenesis and anti-inflammatory therapies. He is a reviewer for various journals of the Optical Society of America (OSA), American Chemical Society (ACS), and Institute of Physics (IOP), and is part of the editorial board (Topic Editor) of the journal “Inorganics” of MDPI. In the past, he worked in Italy (2003-2009) at the Institute of Complex Systems of CNR in Florence as a PhD student and Postdoc, and in California (U.S.A 2010-2011) at TriAlphaEnergy industry as R&D researcher to develop optical techniques for diagnosing fusion plasmas with pulsed magnetic fields. During his time in the U.S., he continued to be associated with the Università degli Studi di Pisa (Italy) and the University College of Irvine (U.C.I). He is an Adjunct Professor II (in the Brazilian sense) in the Department of Physics at PUC-Rio and responsible for the Laboratory of “Synthesis and Laser Characterization of Nanomaterials (Nanolaser)” since February 2012.
