About the Author
Full Professor of Physics at Faculdade de Tecnologia de Sao Paulo, the institution in which she joined in 1992 in the category of Assistant Professor. Graduated in physics at Pontificia Universidade Catolica de Sao Paulo (1983), and obtained the Master of Science (1987) and Doctor of Science (1996) degrees in Physics at Instituto de Fisica da Universidade de Sao Paulo (Brazil). With over 25 years of research and teaching experience she has been collaborating with the Departamento de Engenharia de Sistemas Eletronicos da Escola Politecnica da Universidade de Sao Paulo, for the guidance of M.Sc. and Ph.D. students. She guided nearly 60 with works on metal dielectric nanocomposites based on germanate and tellurite hosts with enhanced luminescence properties, the fabrication and characterization of rib and pedestal waveguides with metallic nanoparticles for infrared light amplification, the production of nanostructured thin films by the sputtering technique, luminescent glassy materials for the generation of with light and the enhancement of its performance caused by metallic nanoparticles. She has obtained invention patent (2009) related to Nd3+ doped heavy metal oxide glass for laser applications, is the reviewer of several international journals, has published around 100 refereed papers (google scholar - 2950 citations , h =31), several conference proceedings and 8 invited book chapters. The current research interests include plasmon assisted efficiency enhancement of rare-earth doped glasses covered solar cells, new fabrication processes of passive and active waveguides for integrated photonics, plasmonic effects on the optical gain of rare earth doped waveguides for operation at the infrared region, the linear and nonlinear optical properties of germanium and tellurium oxide glasses based metal-dielectric nanocomposites, carbon thin films by the sputtering technique. Member of the National Institute of Photonics (CNPq), Optical Society of America, Brazilian Physical Society, Brazilian Society of Photonics, Brazilian Materials Research Society and has been acting as referee for financial agencies of Brazil. She has been the Director of Faculty of Technology of Sao Paulo in the period: 2006/2017 Professor Rangel studied Physics at Universidad Autonoma Metropolitana, Unidad Iztapalapa, in Mexico City. He later received an M.Sc. degree in Physics also at UAM-Iztapalapa. He then moved to Scotland where he studied for an M.Sc. Optoelectronics and Laser Devices, a joint program between Heriot-Watt, and St. Andrews Universities. Later, he received a Ph.D. from Heriot-Watt University. Upon finishing the Ph.D., he returned to Mexico to join the Department of Optics at Centro de Investigacion Cientifica y de Educacion Superior de Ensenada (CICESE), in Ensenada, Baja California Mexico as a Research Fellow, where he is now a Senior Scientist. His research interests are centered in the study of the nonlinear optical properties of materials, and their possible use in all-optical signal processing devices, and in the generation of photon pairs with tailored entanglement properties, of interest for quantum information processing systems. These studies have included different kinds of materials: organic molecules, amorphous semiconductors, and more recently nanostructured materials. His work has also included the development of passive and active waveguides, as well as the study of propagation and emission effects in these systems. It also includes the development of ultrashort pulse amplifiers.His academic productivity includes the publication of more than 70 refereed papers, several conference proceedings, and 5 book chapters, which have received close to 1000 citations in the literature. He has graduated 1 B.Sc., 11 M.Sc., and 6 Ph.D. students, and has been the principal investigator in several projects financed through CONACYT-Mexico grants. He has been a Researcher for more than 20 years at CICESE, spent almost two-years as a postdoc
