Personal
Information:
Dr.
Derosa undergraduate degree is Licenciado
in Physics and equates to a B.S. plus a M.S. in physics and was
obtained from the National University of Córdoba in Argentina. He also has a PhD in Physics from the
University of Córdoba. He conducted
postdoctoral research at the University of South Carolina and became a
Joint Faculty between Louisiana Tech University and Grambling State
University in 2004.
Research
Interest
Dr.
Derosa’s group main interest is the multiscale modeling of organic
conductors.
A
hopping model is used to describe conductivity in polymer but parameters
necessary at this scale are obtained from calculations at smaller
scales. He is currently extending
his research into nanocomposites.
Another
area of research is diffusion at the nanoscale, particularly molecular
diffusion in nanotubes, this research has applications in drug delivery and
anticorrosion additive among others.
