Coffee cup at IFUAP-BUAP (From MIT) In Mexico, 2019 is a hard year for Science and technology due to two main reasons: a) Change of Mexican president followed with a change of political flagship and b) Corruption priority besides economical aspects. This year I had the opportunity to apply for a postdoctoral fellowship from Conacyt-International to spend one year at EMPA-Switzerland. In August, the results came and I was not…

Special thanks for Dra Hailin Zao Hu at IER-UNAM who let me collaborate and learn from their group the methodology for TiO2 compact layer deposition. All the training was possible with the assistance of Ph.D. student Fabian and undergraduate Ing. Gabriela Abrego from UTEZ. Preparing TCO with magic tape for HRT layer deposition Spin coater and micropipette are the essential tools for TiO2 deposition First heating of the compact layer over a…

The goal is to reinforce the photovoltaic area developing thin-film solar cells based on novel materials. The application specifies a 3-month deadline for a response (late July). However, when the deadline arrives, IFUAP said that this response can spend up to 5-months with no compromise. Therefore, this project can not be…
