<\/pre>\n
We interviewed the German physicist Karl Leo<\/strong>, specialist in organic semiconductors<\/strong>. Beyond being the author of more than 550 papers with more than 23,000 citations<\/strong> and 50 families of patents<\/strong>, the scientist has already participated of the creation of 8 spin-off companies<\/strong>. In his lecture at the XIII SBPMat Meeting, Karl Leo will speak on highly efficient organic devices<\/strong>, as OLEDs and solar cells. See our interview with Karl Leo.<\/a><\/td>\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

We also interviewed the Portuguese physicist Antonio Luis Ferreira Martins Dias Carlos<\/strong>, of the University of Aveiro, who will perform a lecture in our meeting in Jo\u00e3o Pessoa on luminescence applied to nanomedicine<\/strong>. In the interview, the professor shared with us his most prominent works in the field of Materials. He also told us about some challenges in the area of luminescence for medical applications, both in medical imaging<\/strong>\u00a0and intra-cellular temperature mapping<\/strong>, and cited examples of applications of luminescent materials that have already been used in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases<\/strong>. See our interview with Luis Dias Carlos.<\/a><\/p>\n

Featured paper with Brazilian participation<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

By making small adjustments in the technique of thin film deposition known as magnetron sputtering<\/strong>, a group of scientists obtained the control of the direction of magnetization<\/strong> in the manufacture of spin valves<\/strong>, devices formed by nanometric layers of magnetic and non-magnetic materials used, for example, in the reading of data of hard disks. This work of spintronics<\/strong>, conducted by researchers from Brazil and Chile<\/strong>, has been recently published in Applied Physics Letters<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0Read the story.<\/a><\/td>\n\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
