Doctoral defense – Isaac de Macedo Felix

Graduate student Isaac de Macêdo Felix, defended his Doctoral dissertation on Friday (04.08.2020) at 10:00 am, in a virtual auditorium via google meet. The thesis, entitled “Heat conduction in quasiperiodic graphene-hBN superlattice nanoribbons” employed non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations to calculate the thermal conductivity of periodic and quasiperiodic graphene-hBN nanoribbons.

Isaac has been a member of TNG since its inception in early 2014, where he also completed his M.Sc. work in 2016. During the last 6 years he authored 4 publications, and has enough results for at least a couple more. We are very proud of his development as a scientist and look forward to his continued success.
