Dr. José A. Luna López received his B.S. degree from the Electromechanical Engineering School of the Apizaco Technology Institute (EES-ITA) in Tlaxcala, Mexico. The M.S. from the Science Institute-Center of Investigation in Semiconductors Devices of the Benemerita Universidad Autonoma de Puebla (IC-CIDS-BUAP) in Puebla, Mexico, and the Ph.D. from the National Institute of Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics (INAOE) in Puebla, Mexico. The MS degree is in Semiconductors Devices, and the Ph. D. is in Science Electronics. He is currently a researcher and professor at the Science Institute-CIDS of the BUAP. He obtained a Post-Ph.D. at the Center of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology of the UNAM in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. He worked in the development of ferroelectrics materials to be used as photoconductors. He was responsible for establishing the Transparent Conductors Oxide laboratory of CIDS-BUAP. His last development was a silicon UV-Vis photodetector with silicon nanoparticles. His research is focused on the physics and technology of materials with nanoparticles and optoelectronics devices with silicon. He works with nanostructured heterostructures (Si-ncs, Zinc-ncs, nanotubes, and grapheno oxide) involved with electroluminescent, photovoltaic, and photosensor devices.
Dr. José A. D. Hernández de la Luz received a Bachelor's degree in Physics at the BUAP School of Physics and Mathematics, a Master's degree in Semiconductor Devices at the IC-BUAP Semiconductor Device Research Center, and a PhD in Science (Physics) at the BUAP Institute of Physics. He Teaches physics, semiconductor devices and materials, and mathematics for Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctoral degrees at AV Bene Merita Puebla Autonomous University Semiconductor Device Research Center (CIDS-ICUAP). He is a member of the National Researcher System (Level 1), PRODEP, and BUAP Researcher Rosters. He formerly served as CIDS-ICUAP coordinator, CIDS-ICUAP graduate academic secretary for semiconductor devices, and as a member of the ICUAP academic unit council. His research interests include the optical, electrical, and structural properties of nanomaterials and semiconductor devices, and the optical properties of carbon nanotubes and graphene.
