I am currently a Ramon y Cajal Researcher in ICREA Prof. Albert Tarancon’s group at the Catalonia Institute for Energy Research (IREC). I am deeply passionate about science, research, and education. My research focuses on developing advanced electrochromic devices using ion-based materials in the field of photoionics.
My ultimate goal in my scientific career is to contribute to the advancement of photonic and photoionic devices through my research and to play a role in shaping the academic development of future generations of scientists.

We will be part of the organizing committee of Symposium R: Emerging Materials for Integrated Photonics and Optoelectronics: From Integration to Devices, at the 2027 E-MRS Spring Meeting and Exhibit , taking place on May 17–21, 2027 in Strasbourg, France.
Our symposium will bring together researchers working on emerging functional materials for integrated photonics, optoelectronic devices.
Stay tuned for the call for abstracts!
🔬 New: Unlocking stable intermediate states in functional oxides
How can we precisely control the properties of functional oxides through oxygen redistribution?
Paul's Nizet recent work published in Nature Communications, we demonstrate voltage-controlled oxygen stoichiometry in SrFeO₃₋δ thin films, revealing stable intermediate states between the fully oxidized perovskite and reduced brownmillerite phases.By combining solid-state electrochemistry, structural characterization, and defect chemistry, we establish a quantitative relationship between oxygen content, crystal structure, and electronic properties.
