Biography

I obtained my Ph.D. in physics in 2008 from the Institute of Materials Science of Seville ICMS-CSIC (prof. H. Míguez). That same year, I was honored with one of the four Beckman postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign (USA), which allowed me to collaborate with both prof. Paul A. Braun and prof. John A. Rogers developing novel unconventional techniques to fabricate photonic architectures compatible with current mass production processes. In 2011, I moved to ICFO with a Marie Curie COFUND fellowship, where I worked with solar cells based in colloidal quantum dots (Prof. Konstantatos). In March 2014, I obtained the Martí Franqués Fellowship offered by the University Rovira i Virgili in Tarragona. In 2015, I moved to the Institute of Materials Science of Barcelona (ICMAB - CSIC) with a Ramon y Cajal Fellowship and an ERC Starting Grant, finally becoming a tenured researcher in 2018.

At ICMAB, my research group is dedicated to the optical design, fabrication and characterization of large area photonic architectures that can be easily implemented in emerging optoelectronic devices to improve their performance. My group specializes in soft nanoimprinting lithography, which offers an inexpensive and simple pathway to exploit the optical properties of nanophotonic structures with unconventional materials and devices. Mastering different variations of soft lithography, we have been able to nanostructure a wide variety of materials from cellulose to different colloids. We develop new photonic architectures that combine the inherent properties of the material with nanophotonics.
