Cristiano Monteiro de Barros Cordeiro

Dr. Cristiano M. B. Cordeiro has been an active researcher in the field of Optics and Photonics for the last 15 years having published 60+ papers in international journals in collaboration with colleagues from Brazil and abroad, in particular England, Australia, Spain, Portugal, Canada, Colombia and Sweden. Member of the Brazilian Academy of Science from 2011 to 2015 his work was cited more than 1500 times (Web of Science) with an h-factor of 19. Cordeiro is, since 2008, Assistant Professor in the Institute of Physics of the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP), Campinas, Brazil, with PhD (2003) in the same University, and postdoc from University of Bath, England. He is head of the Specialty Optical Fiber & Photonics Materials Laboratory (LaFE) at UNICAMP whose main research areas are the development and application of new types of optical fibers (such as photonic crystal fibers and micro/nanofibers) and how to extend its functionalities. Cristiano coordinates or participates in a number of different research projects funded by Fapesp, Capes, CNPq, FINEP and the TBE Company involving areas such as optical devices and sensors, telecommunications and nanophotonics. He was directly involved in the proposal and organization of several scientific events, from grad/undergrad Schools to high level International Conferences including the 1st Workshop on Specialty Optical Fibers and their Applications (WSOF2008). In 2010 he acted as a Guest Editor of the ?Special Issue on Photonic Crystal-Based Sensors? in the IEEE Sensors Journal.

Professor Associado, Livre Docente, pelo Instituto de Física da UNICAMP (Universidade Estadual de Campinas) desde 2008 e coordenador do LaFE, Laboratorio de Fibras Especiais e Sensores Ópticos da Unicamp. Em 2019 foi pesquisador visitante por 12 meses no Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing (IPAS) na Universidade de Adelaide (Austrália) com bolsa de pesquisa BPE da Fapesp. Formação acadêmica realizada na PUC-Rio (bacharel em Física e mestrado) e UNICAMP (doutorado em Física-2003). Seu pós-doutorado foi realizado na área de fibras de cristal fotônico / fibras ópticas micro-estruturadas na University of Bath (Inglaterra). Na volta ao Brasil iniciou a área de pesquisa em fibras ópticas especiais na UNICAMP. Sua área de pesquisa inclui os seguintes temas: sensores ópticos, photonic crystal fiber (fibras de cristal fotônico), fibras ópticas especiais com novas funcionalidades, dispositivos a fibra óptica, proposta/design e fabricação de fibras especiais de sílica e polímero, uso de manufatura aditiva para produção de amostras com interesse em óptica e fotônica, ensino de óptica e novos experimentos didáticos.
