Barranco Carceles Salvador

Salva got his PhD in Vacuum-Nanoelectronics from the University of Edinburgh in 2025, time during which he developed a high-current field emission array for a portable X-ray tomosynthesis device. In 2021 he interrupted his studies and spent one year as a Research Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh doing theorical work at the University of Tartu. Later, at the end of this PhD, he was awarded a research grant to incorporate ML/AI into his research at the Alan Turing Institute in London. He applies his micro-fabrication, theoretical, and modelling skills to the understanding of the quantum tunnelling problem. Salva is now at the Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1 doing research in resonant field emission.
