| Research short bio |
Carlos Sampedro received the M. Eng in Electronics Engineering and M.Sc. in Physics from UGR in 2001, and the Ph.D. degree from UGR in 2006. In 2001, he joined the University of Applied Sciences in Pforzheim, Germany. In 2003 he started as PhD candidate in the frame of two EU projects from FP5 and FP6 obtaining his PhD on device simulation in 2006 with the Doctor Europeus recognition and the PhD award. In 2004, he became Assistant Professor with the UGR in the Electronics and Computer Science Department. He was Guest Research in the Device Modelling group of the University of Glasgow in 2005. Since 2011, he is an Associated Professor with the UGR. During his post-doc period, his research interests include advanced numerical simulation and modelling of ultimate scaled multigate, advanced SOI and non-conventional devices and development of Multi-Subband Ensemble Monte Carlo tools. He has co-authored more than 40 papers published in major journals indexed in JCR and JSR with an impact factor h15. He co-authored 6 book chapters about SOI technology and simulation, and 90+ contributions in conference proceedings obtaining best paper award in EUROSOI2006 and EUROSOI-ULIS 2017. He has been invited speaker in several conferences and in the Universities of Glasgow and Santiago de Compostela. He participated in 30+ research projects belonging to different calls including 15 funded by the Spanish Government (PI in 3 of them), 15 from regional authorities (PI in 5), 9 from other institutions (PI in 3) and 11 by the EU. In this case, the projects correspond to FP5 (1), FP6 (2), FP7(2), H2020 (3), HE (1), Erasmus+ (2) being the UGR co-ordinator of EUROSOI (FP6), EUROSOI+(FP7), REMINDER(H2020), Arqus RI(H2020), Arqus (Erasmus+). He has coauthored different technical reports in the frame of these projects and been a member of REMINDER (H2020) Managemement Board. He is a reviewer in several international journals including Applied Physics Letters, IEEE Elec. Dev. Lett., IEEE Trans. on Elec. Dev., Solid State Elec., and been guest editor in Solid State Elec. And Macromachines. He has made research stages at FH Pforzheim (Germany), Device Modeling Group of the University of Glasgow and Universidad de Santiago de Compostela. He has been in the organizing committee of several international conferences including EUROSOI 2005 and 2011, NanoTec 2011, ESSDERC/ESSCIRC 2010, DCIS 2016, EUROSOI-ULIS 2018, SISPAD 2023 and INFOS 2025. In addition to his research in advanced simulation, where he has been supervisor of two PhDs, with the setting up of the Nanoelectronics and 2D materials Lab at the UGR, he is in charge of the structural characterization research line including AFM techniques and is involve in the development 2D material based nanosensors. He is IEEE Senior Member. He has been Students Vicedean in the Faculty of Science (2016-19), and Director of the Knowledge Transfer Office at the UGR (2019-2023). Since 2023 he is Director for Knowledge Transfer and Innovation at the UGR. |
