Background
Dr. Amilcar Bedoya-Pinto completed his undergraduate studies in Physics at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), carrying out his Master thesis at Walther-Meissner-Institute (WMI) on the growth and characterization of ZnO-based magnetic semiconductors. He received his PhD in Condensed-matter Physics at the University of Göttingen, focusing on charge and spin transport studies of epitaxial metal-semiconductor heterostructures, and being awarded with the Dr. Berliner-Ungewitter Prize for outstanding PhD theses (2011). He started his Postdoctoral work at CiC nanoGUNE research center in San Sebastian (Spain), focusing on molecular-based spintronics and hybrid metal-molecule functional interfaces. Then he moved to the Max-Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics (Director: Stuart Parkin) as a Research Associate, leading ambitious projects on two-dimensional materials and Weyl semimetal-based thin films and heterostructures, ending up in groundbreaking publications (Science, 2021). Since 2022, he got a position as a Distinguished Researcher of the Generació Talent (Gen-T) program at the Institute of Molecular Science (ICMol) where he leads a research group focusing on molecular beam epitaxy of 2D ferroic and topological material heterostructures.
