Christiano de Matos is a principal investigator in the New Materials (NMAT) research line, working with the integration of 2D materials onto waveguides.
Associate Professor at Mackenzie Presbyterian University and Associate Researcher at MackGraphe
Christiano J. S. de Matos was born in Rio de Janeiro in 1975. He holds BSc and MSc degrees in Physics from PUC-Rio and a PhD degree from Imperial College London (2004). He was a visiting researcher at ACREO, Stockholm (1999), and a post-doc in the Physics Department at Univ. Federal de Pernambuco (2004/2005). He is currently an Associate Professor at Mackenzie Presbyterian University and one of the leading researchers of MackGraphe. Christiano’s current work focuses on the linear and nonlinear optical characterization and application of 2D materials and on nanophotonics for the development of sensors and photonic devices. His main contributions include some of the first Raman and nonlinear optical studies of black phosphorus, as well as a number of demonstrations in the area of photonics such as a random laser in an optical fiber, a chirped pulse amplification system using a hollow-core photonic bandgap fiber, and a supercontinuum source using a water-core photonic crystal fiber.
