What is it about?
Gallium Arsenic (GaAs) compounds are used in electronic and optoelectronic and electronic applications for a long time, these devices are constructed by thin film techniques which allow the manipulation of the properties by adjusting the composition, in this work we investigated how doping with iron and copper changes the properties of the compound.

Why is it important?
Developing new materials for optoelectronic applications help us to develop better solar cells, LEDs and other kinds of technological devices which changed our modern life. The constant search for new compounds help, for example, to produce solar cells with better energetic efficiency.
Perspectives
This is the first work in which my long time collaborator, Prof. Pablo Guillermo Gonzales Ormeno leads. He conceived the project and developed all the calculations, I helped in the interpretation of the results and with the thermodynamics part. This is a great example of the Peruvian-Brazilian collaboration which started in the early 2000.
