ABOUT/BIOGRAPHY
Antonios M. Douvas received his Diploma in Chemical Engineering in 1995 and PhD Diploma in Photolithography in 2003 from the School of Chemical Engineering of National Technical University of Athens. In 2004-2007 he received a postdoctoral fellowship of Researcher grade D from the Institute of Microelectronics of National Centre for Scientific Research (NCSR) “Demokritos”. In the period 2007-2013 he joined the Scientific Staff of the Institute of Microelectronics at NCSR “Demokritos” and in 2013-2017 he joined the Scientific Staff of the Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology at the same Centre. In 2017 he was appointed as Researcher grade C (Assistant Researcher) at the Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology of NCSR “Demokritos”. His research field is “Development of nanostructured materials, with emphasis on hybrid materials and metal oxides/polyoxometalates, for applications in micro- nanodevices”. His main research interests are the following: (1) Development of advanced materials (with emphasis on hybrid materials and metal oxides/polyoxometalates, including synthesis/characterization of these materials) and processes for applications in micro- nanoelectronic and photocatalytic devices; (2) Physicochemical investigation of advanced materials films (with emphasis on hybrid materials and metal oxides/polyoxometalates), mainly at material interfaces for applications in micro- nanoelectronic (including photovoltaic) and photocatalytic devices, as well as in conservation of works of art; and (3) Nanostructure fabrication technologies (including nanolithography and layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly method) and physicochemical investigation of photopolymeric materials (based on metal oxides/polyoxometalates, etc.) for applications in micro- nanoelectronic and photocatalytic devices, as well as in conservation of works of art. He has 67 publications in international scientific journals and conference proceedings (peer-reviewed), 3 scientific patents, and 6 publications in national scientific journals and conference proceedings.
