Currently, Emanuel Carlos is a Research group leader of Flexible and Sustainable Electronics at CENIMAT|i3N, Local PI of TRANSPER, INNOVATION, LEAF and ELEGANCE (international level), co-PI of 3 projects at national (SECURE, PRR R2U and BE.NEUTRAL) and other at international level (GAIA). He finished his PhD in 2021 in Nanotechnologies and Nanosciences, NOVA University Lisbon. He has been working in solution-based metal oxide electronics since 2015, focusing on sustainable materials and printing technologies (inkjet, flexographic and screen printing) for electronic devices. His work involves the design, deposition, and characterization of solution-based metal oxide thin films and 2D materials, fabrication, and characterization of electronic devices. He is co-author of > 30 peer-reviewed papers in high-impact journals and 4 book chapters in this area. He is also currently involved in other international (TERRAMETA, POEMS and INFRACHIP) research projects.

Prof. Dr. Alwin Daus obtained his Dr. sc. degree (2018) in the field of flexible electronics from ETH Zürich and his B.Sc./M.Sc. in electrical engineering from TU Braunschweig. During his studies, he did research stays and internships at Princeton University (surface chemistry), Robert Bosch LLC (micro-electromechanical systems) and Philips Technologie GmbH (organic light-emitting devices).

After his doctoral degree, he received the Early Postdoc.Mobility Fellowship from the Swiss National Science Foundation and joined Stanford University. During his postdoc, he studied electronic devices based on 2D materials, chalcogenides and oxide semiconductors including transistors, memory, solar cells and sensors. In 2021 he was awarded the AVS Nanoscale Science and Technology Division Early Career Award. He then joined RWTH Aachen University where he led activities on 2D material-based memristive devices for neuromorphic computing. In 2022 he became recipient of the Emmy Noether Programme by the German Research Foundation and established his independent research group. In 2023 he was then appointed Tenure-Track-Professor at University of Freiburg. In October 2024, he became full professor at University of Stuttgart heading the Institute of Semiconductor Engineering. His current research interests span over a wide range of materials such as chalcogenides, oxides and group IV alloy semiconductors, and he works on electronic and optoelectronic devices for back-end-of-line integration, flexible electronics and photonics.
