Biographie:
Prof. Carlos Torres-Torres's main research is in nonlinear optics exhibited by nanostructures and thin films. Most of his publications involve the ultrafast optical Kerr effect, laser ablation, and the nonlinear optical absorption in metallic nanoparticles nucleated by ion-implantation, grown by sol-gel methods or prepared by spray pyrolysis processing routes. His research on 2D materials was awarded by the 2013 MRS Spring Congress in San Francisco, California. He is currently a full professor at the Instituto Polit?cnico Nacional Mexico where he is responsible for the Laboratory of Vectorial Optical Instrumentation. He was awarded best reviewer in 2015 by the Journal of Optics and Laser Technology, Elsevier and also has been awarded outstanding reviewer by various prestigious journals such as the Journal of Physics: Applied Physics, Molecular Liquids, Sensors & Actuators B, Materials Science & Semiconductor Processing, Materials Chemistry and Physics, Applied Surface Science and Optical Materials, Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, RSC Advances and Physica Scripta. He has published over 100 scientific papers with more than 1000 citations. He is currently a coordinator of a group in the Nanoscience and Micro Nanotechnology Network and head of the group of Instrumentation of Signals in Nanostructures at the Instituto Polit?cnico Nacional Mexico. Geselle Garc?a-Beltr?n is a PhD student at the Instituto Polit?cnico Nacional Mexico. She received her M.S. in Mechanical Engineering with a thesis related to the nonlinear optics and mechanic phenomena exhibited by nanofluids at the Escuela Superior de Ingenier?a Mec?nica y El?ctrica Unidad Zacatenco del Instituto Polit?cnico Nacional Mexico. During her time as a PhD student, she has deepened her knowledge of the nonlinear optical effects of plasmonic carbon/metal nanofluids and nanostructures. Her research has focused on the development of probabilistic logic gates based on third-order nonlinear optical effects...
