Lucas Spessato

B.S. Chemistry (2016) from the State University of Maringá (UEM). Master in Chemistry (with an emphasis in Physical Chemistry) by UEM (2018), working in the magnetization of carbon-based materials, synthesis of nanostructured iron oxides, adsorption, and photo-Fenton reaction. Ph.D. in Sciences (concentration area in Chemistry with an emphasis in Physical Chemistry) from UEM (2022), working in the synthesis of carbon quantum dots, fluorescence, nanostructured niobium oxides, and chemical modification of carbon-based materials for later applications in adsorption (solid/liquid and solid/gas) and photodegradation kinetics. Associate member of the Brazilian Chemical Society in the divisions of catalysis, materials, physical chemistry, and photochemistry. Experience in the areas of physical chemistry, materials chemistry, characterization techniques, synthesis of nanostructured oxides, quantum dots, adsorption, chemical kinetics, and chemical reactions on solid surfaces. Solid background and experience in designing experiments, computational quantum mechanics applied to chemistry, and various instrumental techniques.
