Area of Expertise:

Instrumentation , Cryogenic detectors , RF design

Profile Summary

I am heavily interested in the evolutionary stages of the large scale-structure in the Universe, mainly through observations of high-redshift dusty galaxies with the new generation of telescopes (i.e. LTM/ México) and new detection technologies. My research broadly addressed cryogenic detectors applied on astronomical instrumentation at millimeter wavelengths, i.e. Transition Edge Sensors (TES), Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KID´s). Microwave Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA´s) operated at cryogenic temperatures < 1K.
