    Douglas Marcel Gonçalves Leite (Leite, D.M.G.)

    Douglas Leite holds a PhD in Materials Science and Technology from Universidade Estadual Paulista - Bauru/Brazil with exchange period at Johannes Kepler University - Linz/Austria (2011). Douglas is also Graduated in Physics (2005) and Master in Materials Science and Technology (2007) by UNESP - Brazil. Currently, he is a Full Technologist at the Plasmas and Processes Laboratory (LPP) of the Aeronautics Institute of Technology (ITA) – São José dos Campos/Brazil. He also belongs to the Faculties of the Physics Department and of the Postgraduate Program in Aeronautical and Mechanical Engineering (PG-EAM) of this same Institution. His main educational activities relay on the application of mathematical models to describe complex physics experiments (undergraduate curses) and on the science and technology of thin films (postgraduate curses).
