个人简历
Antonio is a theoretical physicist with a broad research portfolio in modern theoretical condensed matter physics. He received his bachelor in Theoretical Physics by the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid and his PhD by the State University of New York at Stony Brook under the supervision of Prof. Jac Verbaarschot. He has held research appointments in the Université Paris-Sud and Princeton University (2004-2009) where he was also lecturer for three years. He was assistant professor in the University of Lisbon and then staff member of the Cavendish Laboratory of Cambridge University for six years until he joined Shanghai Jiao Tong University as a tenured associate professor. He has over seventy publications, including papers in Nature Materials, Physical Review X and several Physical Review Letters, and over forty invitations to international conferences. In the last few years he has supervised several postdocs, PhD students and master students. Some of them are now researchers in Imperial College, Cambridge, Leiden University or found permanent positions in their home countries. He has been the recipient of awards and grants from public research agencies and private foundations in UK, European Union, Portugal, Japan and Spain including Marie Curie, MECD-Fullbright and EPSRC Career Acceleration fellowships. He is a referee for leading research journals such Nature Physics and also funding agencies in Netherlands, Germany, Argentina and UK. He has active collaborations, and recent papers, with senior researchers in MIT, UC Santa Barbara, RIKEN and Kyoto University. Highlights of his research includes a theory of finite size effects in nano-superconductors and its experimental demonstration, the development of a novel theory of defect formation in dynamical phase transitions, a semiclassical analytical description of the Anderson metal-insulator transition and his recent proposals of a novel form of quantum matter based on Efimov physics. Two of the main themes of his current research are the study of the dynamics of strongly interacting and disordered quantum systems and of the theoretical basis for the nano-engineering of enhanced and novel forms of superconductivity. The ultimate aim of this endeavour is the design of materials with high tunable properties that not only reveal novel forms of quantum matter but are also relevant for practical applications.
