Prof. Mariana Amorim Fraga is a Professor at the Electrical Engineering Program, Mackenzie Presbyterian University, Brazil. Leader of the Photovoltaic Sensors and Devices research group. She was a Visiting Professor at the Biomedical Engineering Program, Federal University of SãoPaulo (UNIFESP, Brazil). She obtained her MSc in Electrical Engineering from the University of São Paulo (USP, Brazil) and her PhD in Aeronautics and Mechanical Engineering from the Technological Institute of Aeronautics (ITA, Brazil). Her research interests are in the materials science and engineering areas, mainly on the synthesis and characterization of nanomaterials for the development of sensors, electronic devices and energy technologies. William Chiappim is an Assistant Professor in the Physics Department at Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho, São Paulo, Brazil. His research centers on the physics of fluids, and the physics of plasmas and electrical discharges.Patricia L. Schilardi is Principal Researcher at Instituto de Investigaciones Fisicoquímicas Teóricas y Aplicadas (INIFTA), La Plata, Argentina. Her research interests are on modified surfaces, both from a chemical point of view (functionalization of surfaces, adsorption of biomolecules, etc.) and topographical (adsorption of nanomaterials, surface nanostructures).
