The Quantum Theory of Nanomaterials (QTNano) group

The Quantum Theory of Nanomaterials (QTNano) group, www.qtnano.iqsc.usp.br, started on 08.01.2009 through the project “Computational Catalysis: Hydrogen Production From Ethanol”, which was funded FAPESP www.fapesp.br (Young Researcher) and started at the São Carlos Institute of Physics, www.ifsc.usp.br,
University of São Paulo, www.usp.br. On May 17, 2012, the project / group was transferred to the São Carlos Chemistry Institute, www.iqsc.usp.br, in the same
Campus, in the city of São Carlos.

The group’s formal formalization began in the second half of 2013, and approval in early 2014. In early 2018, the group’s Facebook page,
www.facebook.com/QTNano, was created to spread the work of the community work. . To date, several students have completed their master’s, doctoral, and
postdoctoral work in the group




About Prof Juarez L. F. Da Silva

Ph.D. in Natural Sciences from the Technical University of Berlin and the Fritz-Haber Institute of the Max-Planck Society, Berlin, Germany (2002). After 11 years abroad as a Ph.D candidate, Post doctorate in Germany, and Research Associate in the United States, Dr. Da Silva returned to Brazil as Young Researcher in the Institute of Physics of São Carlos.

To date, he is an Assistant Professor at the University of São Paulo, Institute of Chemistry of São Carlos, and CNPq researcher-level 1C. He founded the QTnano group that is dedicated to the computational science of materials and chemistry using methods based on Density Functional Theory.

He has been a member of the Executive Committee of the Center for Innovation in New Energies, which is financed by FAPESP and Shell Petróleo Brasil Ltda.
