Alfredo Jose Amigo Pombo

Alfredo Jose Amigo Pombo is a Professor at the University of Santiago de Compostela, holding a position within the Department of Applied Physics under the Faculty of Physics. His academic journey includes a PhD from the same university (1991) with a thesis focusing on theoretical-experimental studies of liquid mixtures, specifically 1-alcohol + n-alkane systems, under the supervision of Dr. María Inmaculada Paz Andrade and Dr. Ramón Bravo Quintas.

His research group, PTSL (Thermophysical and Surface Properties of Liquids), explores advanced topics in fluid physics, nanomaterials, and surface chemistry. Key areas of interest include thermophysical properties of nanofluids, ionic liquids, tribology, and energy applications. His work spans experimental and theoretical analysis of surface tension, heat capacity, and molecular interactions in liquid mixtures.

Recent publications highlight innovations in nanomaterials for electric vehicle lubricants (2025), ionic liquid toxicity (2024), and supramolecular fluid design (2021). His contributions also extend to ophthalmology, addressing intraocular lens techniques and post-surgical vision outcomes (2014–2020). Over 70 peer-reviewed articles demonstrate his prolific output across material science, energy, and medical applications.

Despite no explicitly listed awards or grants, his sustained research output and interdisciplinary focus reflect significant academic impact. He collaborates extensively on international projects and advises research groups in fluid dynamics and nanotechnology.
