Marcos de Lucas Medina

Marcos de Lucas Medina is an Assistant Researcher at IMDEA Nanociencia, joining in December 2024 while pursuing his PhD. His work focuses on ultrafast photophysics of nanostructures using femtosecond-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy to study electronic and vibrational relaxation pathways.

His academic background includes:

• BSc in Chemistry from Complutense University of Madrid (2019–2023), specializing in high-resolution Raman spectroscopy of non-equilibrium supersonic jet systems and quantum simulations.
• MSc in Chemical Science and Technology (2023–2024), featuring classical molecular dynamics simulations of electrolytic solutions and IRMPD spectroscopy research at Radboud University's FELIX Laboratory.

His research integrates experimental ultrafast techniques—such as pump-probe spectroscopy developed at Complutense University's Center for Ultrafast Lasers—with computational methods including Ab initio Molecular Dynamics. Key interests span nanomaterial photophysics, molecular relaxation dynamics, and advanced spectroscopic methodologies for probing non-equilibrium states.

No scientific awards were documented in the source material.

Advising and grant activities are unreported, consistent with his early-career researcher status.

He contributes to IMDEA Nanociencia's Pump-probe and photoinduced absorption spectroscopy group, building on prior experience with High Harmonic Generation setups for photoelectron/photoion detection at Complutense University.
