About us

Five PhD in science, and three bachelor in science forms our team work. It is devoted to thin film  coating using several techniques, including sputtering, laser ablation and sol-gel. Its characterization with optical spectroscopies involves optical spectroscopies UV-Vis and ellipsometry.
The initial goal is the preparation of inhomogeneous thin films made by reactive sputtering, controlled by emission spectroscopy. The background, and new experiences obtained during this project, promotes the extrapolation of the limits, giving place to new research lines and
skills. A distinctive feature of our group is a common interest, working as a team, always learning and improving ourselves.
