Andreia Ruivo graduated in Chemistry and also obtained the master degree in Chemistry at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon (FCUL). In 2013 she received her Ph.D. degree in Sustainable Chemistry with the thesis entitled “Synthesis and characterization of innovative luminescent glasses for artistic applications” in collaboration with the Photochemistry and Supramolecular Chemistry Research Group (Requimte) and VICARTE.
Currently Andreia Ruivo holds a permanent position as an Assistant Researcher at the LAQV Associated Laboratory and VICARTE – the Glass and Ceramics for the Arts Research Unit. Her research focuses on developing sustainable glass and ceramic materials, including luminescent and coloured glasses using inexpensive and non-toxic raw materials. She is also exploring innovative methods for creating glass and ceramics from waste products, for both technological and artistic applications.
As main methodologies used are standard synthetic methods, UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy, dilatometry, X-Ray Fluorescence, differential scanning calorimetry and different microscopy techniques.
