Assoc. Prof. Dr. Jonas Duarte | Carbon Allotropes | Material Chemistry Award

Professor | Federal University of Western Pará | Brazil

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Jonas Duarte is a researcher specializing in nanotechnology and computational modeling, with a primary focus on the electronic transport properties of carbon-based and graphene-like two-dimensional materials. His work explores the detection and behavior of Majorana fermions in Kitaev chain nanodevices using Green’s functions, advancing the understanding of quantum phenomena in nanoscale systems. He employs ab initio computational methods to simulate electronic interactions in molecular nanoelectronics, contributing to the development of next-generation materials for logic, switching, and telecommunications devices. Professor Duarte’s research bridges the fields of condensed matter physics, materials science, and quantum electronics, emphasizing the integration of theoretical modeling and practical nanodevice applications. His studies on carbon allotropes and phagraphene structures have provided significant insights into charge transport, eigenchannel visualization, and transition-voltage spectroscopy in 2D systems. Through his collaborative and interdisciplinary work, he continues to push the boundaries of nanoscale material innovation and computational condensed matter research, aiming to establish sustainable and efficient pathways for advanced nanoelectronic technologies.
