Miguel Almeida, researcher at INESC TEC, received the “Best Oral Presentation” award during the Doctoral Program Day in Engineering Physics – PRODEF 2024. The work presented by the researcher – “The advantages of using Tamm Plasmon Resonance for Hydrogen sensing over Traditional Plasmonic Methods” – provides advances in the development of optical fibre sensors for the detection of hydrogen.
The second edition of the Doctoral Program Day in Engineering Physics (PRODEF) took place on October 28 at FEUP, with PRODEF PhD students; the event focused on promoting the exchange of ideas and knowledge.
The day featured public lectures and a series of presentations by PhD students (22 oral presentations), who shared their research in Engineering Physics. The first degree and master’s degree students had the opportunity to present their work in a poster exhibition. The PRODEF seeks to reinforce the connection between the three levels: first degree, master’s degree and PhD in Engineering Physics.
Miguel Almeida, PhD student at PRODEF and researcher at INESC TEC, received the award for “Best Oral Presentation” for the work “The advantages of using Tamm Plasmon Resonance for Hydrogen sensing over Traditional Plasmonic Methods”. This work, carried out at INESC TEC, was developed within the scope of the PRR project Aliança para a Transição Energética, under the scientific guidance of Luís Coelho and José Manuel Almeida, also researchers at INESC TEC.
In addition to Miguel Almeida, this year’s PRODEF welcomed nine more oral presentations by young INESC TEC researchers: Paulo Santos, Pedro Silva, João Carvalho, António Rodrigues, Paulo Robalinho, Tomás Lopes, Diana Capela, Beatriz Soares, and Joana Teixeira. Moreover, six INESC TEC researchers represented the institution in the poster exhibition: André Santos, Rita Faria, Francisco Rocha, Hugo Veloso, Lorenzo Santini, and Xavier Lopes.
The researchers mentioned in this news piece are associated with INESC TEC, UP-FCUP and UP-FEUP.
