Bio and research interests
Dr. Carlos Echeverría-Arrondo, Industrial Engineer from the Public University of Navarra in 1999, graduated in Physical Sciences from UNED in 2013, and doctor since 2010, has worked in different academic and research institutions such as the Donosita International Physics Center, University of the Basque Country, and the Materials Physics Center (CFM-CSIC). During these years of research, he has performed theoretical calculations with the help of computer clusters based on the density functional theory (DFT). Some milestones are highlighted, such as the discovery of a new crystalline phase in MnAs nanowires, a shape memory alloy, and the unexpected magnetic properties of another semiconductor, Mn-doped GaN, when the system becomes of nanometric size and has the shape of a quantum dot. In addition, he has contributed to understanding the dynamics of electronic spin in low-dimensional systems in the presence of dopants, and has contributed his efforts in other areas such as the quantum reactive scattering. He is currently working on new materials for photovoltaic applications at the Institute of Advanced Materials, always from a theoretical and computational point of view, using programs such as CP2K or Quantum Espresso. His research work has resulted hitherto in twenty six articles spreading the most prestigious journals. Also noteworthy is his teaching work at the University of Jaume I in Castellón during the years 2017, 2018, and 2019.
