Antonio Helio de Castro Neto is a Brazilian-born

two-dimensional materials. He is a distinguished professor in the Departments of Materials Science Engineering,[7] and Physics[8] and a professor at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.[9] He was elected as a fellow of the American Physical Society in 2003.[10] In 2011 he was elected as a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.[11]

Education

In 1984, Castro Neto attended the State University of Campinas

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign under the supervision of Eduardo Fradkin.[12][1] His PhD thesis dealt with the understanding and description of the lowest energy excitations of Fermi liquids.[12]

Career

After graduation in 1994, he joined the Institute for Theoretical Physics (currently, Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics) at the University of California, Santa Barbara.[13] There he studied the electronic properties of nanomaterials and nanostructures under Matthew Fisher. In 1995, he moved to the University of California, Riverside as an assistant professor. In 2000, he moved to Boston University as a professor of physics.

Castro Neto published on theoretical aspects of graphene such as the effect of vacancies in the electronic properties ;

Clarivate Analytics from 2017 to 2019.[26][27][28] His work has been cited more than 101,602 times, and he has an h-index of 122.[29]

In 2008, he moved to the National University of Singapore, starting the Graphene Research Centre (GRC) in 2010[30] with facilities for the synthesis, characterization, and device fabrication of graphene devices.[31] In 2014, the GRC was expanded by a grant of the National Research Foundation of Singapore to explore other 2D materials beyond graphene and their heterostructures[32] with the creation of the Centre for Advanced 2D Materials.[33]

Castro Neto has started 4 companies in Singapore: 2D Materials; MADE Advanced Materials, Graphene Watts and UrbaX.[34]
