alberto alvarezherrero

Alberto Alvarez-Herrero received the degree in fundamental physics and the Ph.D. degree, for his work on ellipsometric characterization of dielectric materials to develop evanescent optical fiber sensors for aerospace applications, from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Madrid, Spain, in 1994 and 2002, respectively. He has been with the Laboratorio de Instrumentación Espacial (LINES), Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA), Madrid, since 1994. Currently, his research interests are ellipsometry, polarimetry, optical characterization of nanostructured materials, holography, and optical fiber sensors. He is also interested in the specification, design, integration, and qualification of optical instruments for aerospace applications.
