Ivo Teixeira received his BS in 2012 and his MSc in 2013 from the Federal University of Minas Gerais. He received his PhD from the University of Oxford in 2017, under the supervision of Prof. Edman Tsang. After that, he joined Prof. Pedro Camargo?s group at University of São Paulo (Brazil) as a postdoctoral researcher. Between 2019 and 2021, Ivo was a Humboldt Fellow at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces in Potsdam (Germany) as a guest of Prof. Markus Antonietti. Currently, Ivo is an Adjunct Professor at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar), where he recently founded his research group focused on materials based on carbon nitrides and single-atom catalysis coordinates the Young Researcher project (FAPESP) entitled "Graphitic Carbon Nitrides as Platforms for Single-Atom Photocatalysis: Moving Towards Design Principles for Improved Performance".

This proposal aims to produce epoxide monomers from vegetable oil photoepoxidation. The heterogeneous photocatalysts which will be employed for this task will be nickel single-atoms stabilized in poly(heptazine imides) (PHI). Poly(heptazine imides) are polymeric semiconductor composed of only atoms of carbon and nitrogen (carbon nitride-based material) which its framework is composed of h…
This young investigator proposal aims to create a research group of excellence focused on the field of single-atom catalysis (SAC) in Brazil, based on the Department of Chemistry at the Federal University of São Carlos (DQ-UFSCar). Although the DQ-UFSCar presents research groups established in several areas, including nanomaterials and catalysis, the department does not have groups focuse…

This proposal is concerned with the investigation of plasmonic metal nanoparticles (NPs) supported on semiconductors and its applications in photocatalysis, especially hydrogen generation by water splitting. We aim to kick-start this new collaboration by combining the acknowledged synthesis capability of Dr. Pedro Camargo group on shape and size controlled metal nanoparticles with the cat…
This Master proposal will start with the synthesis optimization for PHI and PTI-based SACs and their preliminary characterization. In this step is expected to significant progress has been already made by the Ph.D. students (DD-1 and DD-2). In a second step, we plan to start the photocatalytic tests by the simplest reactions, in this case, the photooxidations. As mentioned in the body of …
Herein, one scientific initiation student will be responsible by the controlled design of the PHI/PTI-Single-Atoms systems to be applied in organic synthesis reactions and follow their catalytic applications in organic synthesis reactions. First, we intend to test these photocatalysts for photoredox reactions, since Ir3+-PHI were already successfully prepared and Ir3+ compounds are well-k…
This Direct Doctorate proposal will be focus on the development of new techniques to investigate single-atom catalysts (SACs). Characterize SACs and prove the presence of metals only as single-atoms is crucial in this field and very challenging. The SACs characterization is very dependent on advanced characterization techniques with low availability, such as EXAFS and aberration-corrected…

The importance of organofluorides has been growing especially due to their commercial applications. The applications of these organofluorides include the agrochemical industry, materials science, and medicinal chemistry, with the use of radiotracers labeled with fluorine-18 for cancer detection via positron emission tomography. However, fluorination is known to be a very challenging proce…
The use of solar energy to promote catalytic reactions is essential to make our economy more sustainable and greener, however, the vast majority of photocatalysts have activity limited to the UV region and therefore are not very efficient when excited by the solar spectrum. In this context, this project is focused on develop plasmonic photocatalysts active by visible light to promote orga…
