Featured paper with Brazilian participation
A team of researchers from Brazilian universities (Federal University of Uberlândia and University of Brasília) have developed a new method to synthesize quantum dots. In addition to be cheap, reproducible and efficient to produce the minuscule semiconductor crystals, the method comes with a bonus: the modulation of the thickness of the quantum dots’ shells. Promising for biotechnological applications, the results of the paper were published on ACS Nano. Read the story.

SBPMat’s community people
We talked with researcher Fernando Zawislak, the introducer of the field of ion implantation in Brazil. More than 30 years ago, Zawislak founded the Ion Implantation Laboratory at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) – still the largest in Latin America, to this day – which approaches numerous fields of knowledge by means of the creation of nanostructures and the analysis of materials with ion beams. The scientist also was one the founders of the Graduate Studies Program in Materials Sciences in UFRGS. In our interview, the Emeritus Professor talked about such contributions and what led him to achieve them. He also left a message to younger researchers, advising them to choose a field they like, an advisor in a modern research field, and to have an entrepreneurial spirit and an open mind to multidisciplinarity. Read our interview with Fernando Zawislak.
Professor Edgar Zanotto honored for his actions for the development of the city of São Carlos, the “Brazilian Capital of Technology“. Here.

Featured paper with Brazilian participation
This month, we highlight a communication published by Nanoscale and prepared by research groups in Brazil with partners from Spain and France. The scientists assembled sensors based on nanorods of silver tungstate and assessed their performance to detect ozone – a gas that, above certain amounts, is harmful to health. Silver tungstate has proved to be a great material to be used in ozone sensors. Read the story.

SBPMat’s community people
We spoked with scientist Sergio Mascarenhas, known in our community for creating, in 1970, the first course of Materials Engineering of Latin America. Mascarenhas has provided important contributions to the field of Materials, as his studies with ionic crystals, used in optical memories. He also went further, though, and guided by the idea of fulfilling the social role of the scientist, accomplished achievements permeating fields as Biology, Medicine and Farming. The 85 year old scientist is currently concerned with encouraging the youth to develop some frontier subjects he considers very important for human kind, complex systems and biomimetics. Read our interview with Sergio Mascarenhas.
History of SBPMat
We started a series of interviews with former SBPMat presidents on the work of the successive directory boards of our Society. In the interview with Guillermo Solórzano, read which were the main actions, challenges and pending issues of the founding board (2001-2003), the highlights of the first SBPMat meetings and more.

Featured paper with Brazilian participation
A team of three scientists managed to identify defects of atomic dimensions which exist in thin films of zinc oxide, through an interesting experiment, using the luminescence capability of this material. Initially, they prepared films with various quantities and types of defects and, systematically, they excited the samples, measured luminescence and related these data with the defects that had been introduced. The experiment was conceived and performed by a Brazilian researcher, using photon-scanning tunneling microscopy in Germany. The results have been published in The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters. More.

English version – First edition
Greetings, .
SBPMat’s news
XIII SBPMat meeting: symposia. See the list of the symposia approved for this year’s meeting. Here.
Featured paper with Brazilian participation
Signed by 19 authors, the paper highlighted this month by our newsletter is about nitrogen-doped graphene nanoribbons, synthesized by CVD in one single process. In the article published in Advanced Functional Materials, the scientists show that nitrogen increases the semiconductor behavior and the chemical reactivity of the nanoribbons, expanding the possibilities of application in electronics, in addition to generate a particular morphology in its borders. A part of the work was carried out in the Federal University of the State of Pernambuco (UFPE). Here.
History of Materials research in Brazil
Six years ago, CAPES (the government agency linked to the Brazilian Ministry of Education in charge of promoting high standards for post-graduate courses in Brazil) included “Materials” in its table of knowledge areas. Know more about this story in the article we have prepared, based on an interview with Professor Lívio Amaral, one of the men behind its creation. Here.

XII Encontro da SBPMat: entrevistas com palestrantes das plenárias

Anke Kaysser-Pyzalla, diretora científica de um centro de pesquisa da Alemanha (o HZB) que possui equipamentos de grande escala para pesquisas com neutrons e com luz síncrotron, comentou como esses equipamentos estão contribuindo e podem contribuir no desenvolvimento de materiais para energia solar.

Veja a entrevista.

Artigos científicos em destaque

Conduzida por brasileiros do IFSC-USP em colaboração com franceses, poloneses e outros brasileiros, a pesquisa em destaque neste mês mostrou que a espectroscopia baseada no efeito de absorção de dois fótons (fenômeno óptico não linear proposto em 1930) fornece informações relevantes e únicas sobre estrutura eletrônica e molecular de materiais. A equipe analisou cromóforos orgânicos quirais. O trabalho foi publicado no Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters.
