Carlos Nunez Lobato

Carlos has extensive experience in research, working in labs at several internationally recognised universities. At the University of California, Santa Cruz (US), he investigated the physics of graphene transistors, overseeing part of the fabrication and characterisation of these devices. This led to the co-authorship of a paper in Applied Physics Letter.

He worked as an electronics engineer at Axis Communications, where he was involved in the design of printed circuit boards and the electromagnetic compatibility of their electronic products.

At KAUST University (KSA), he worked on developing light-emitting diodes (LEDs) using materials that consume even less power than readily existing LEDs. Carlos’ Master’s Thesis at KTH (Sweden) was a research project involving devices that produce single photons for quantum communication. One of his devices was utilized in an experiment in conjunction with the telecom company Ericsson, which contributed to a co-authorship in the publication in ACS Photonics.

His most vital research experience was during my PhD at DTU, working with the physics of heat-to-electricity conversion (thermoelectricity) devices created with complex oxide-material semiconductors. Here, he participated in several international conferences, with posters and talks, as well as publications in journals like Materials Today or Advanced Electronics Materials
