Alexander Stangl

alexander stangl Hola! My name is Alex and I just started my PhD in Physics in superconductivity. I love the idea to work in a field which might change our future to a greener one (loss less power grids, fusion plants, energy storages for green energy) and combines basic research with applications. I graduated from Vienna University of Technology but studied some semesters abroad in Göttingen, Germany and at the High Magnetic Field Lab in Tallahassee, Florida. I enjoy deepening my knowledge and understanding of physics and traveling and experiencing new cultures at the same time and  I’m looking forward to a fruitful and great time with all of you here at the ICMAB!

2015-03-03_10-41-40 Hello, my name is Alvaro Calleja, I’m an Electronic Design Engineer and I have just joined today the group of Superconducting Materials and Nanostructure at Large Scale at ICMAB. My tasks are related to the development of electronic control and monitoring systems for the project of Development of a New Generation of Electric Generators with Superconducting Coils, within of Teresa Puig’s group and under the supervision of Dr. Xavier Granados. See you around at ICMAB!

16 February 2015: Albert Queralto’s PhD thesis defense

Albert Queraltó defended his PhD Thesis, entitled “Growth of functional oxide heterostructures from chemical solutions using advanced processing mathodologies”, the jury formed by Kornelius Nielsch, Florencio Sánchez and Lourdes Calzada awarded his work with an Excel·lent Cum Laude which is the maximum qualification for a PhD thesis at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Congratulations Albert! FB_IMG_1431068129861 (1) FB_IMG_1431068142973

SUMAN representation at PAN EUROPEAN CLUSTER VISION2020

image008 Our project manager, Dr. Mar Tristany, has participated in the PAN EUROPEAN NMP CLUSTER VISION2020 organized by LEITAT the 31st October in Terrassa. The event focused on addressing the Horizon 2020 NMP2014 calls for proposals, and included talks by several invited speakers from Vision 2020, the EU and industry. During the Open Brokerage Session, we presented some proposal ideas for the NMP Calls 2015. http://www.2020visionnetwork.eu/  

Juan Carlos Gonzalez at NANOLITO 2014

image006 Our PhD student Juan Carlos Gonzalez-Rosillo has attended to the 6th Spanish Workshop in Nanolithography meeting (NANOLITO 2014) which was held in Zaragoza at the Instituto de Nanociencia de Aragon facilities. He presented a poster entitled “Resistive Switching phenomena in La1-xSrxMnO3-y compounds: a local probe microscopy study”. The picture is a night view of the Catedral del Pilar in Zaragoza. http://unizar.es/nanolito/nanolito2014/ image007

Jorge Silva, Erasmus student from Lisbon at SUMAN

image011 On September 8th 2014, the student Jorge Silva from Lisbon (Portugal) arrived to SUMAN group to develop his thesis from his 5-year Integrated Master in Electrical Engineering and Computers (Bachelor (3) + Master (2)), which he is completing in Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologias from Universidade Nova de Lisboa. This program is mostly known as Erasmus Placement or Erasmus Professional. He will be working on “Modelling of Superconducting Bulks and Stacks for Electrical Machines Application” under the supervision of Dr. Xavier Granados during the next 6 months.   Welcome Jorge!
