It gives me great pleasure to recommend David Barcene for
admission to graduate school. I belongto a research group working
on porous aluminum oxide films at Pierre and Marie Curie
MaterialScience Laboratory. This laboratory is a research lab at
the Universidad Tecnolgica de Panam. Imet David about two year ago
when he decided to do his undergraduate thesis at the lab onporous
aluminum oxide films. He has studied the effect of anodizing
parameter (voltage,concentration, etc.) on the formation of ordered
nanostructure. This meant a ldt literature reseatchand reading on
topics not normally studied on pre graduate physics courses. This
experience hasshown his capacity to open to new knowledge
(anodizing) and to apply it to his research withenthusiasm,
responsibility and originality. He has shown good judgment and
understanding whenhe has met with expert in the topic; in learning
new techniques and applying it to his results(electron microscopy,
image analysis, and impedance analysis). David has always shown
respectto his mentors and fellows students, sharing his experiences
and willing to participate in otherproject, beside his and cultural
activities we carry on at the lab. He recently participates at a
postersession at APANAC (Panama's Association for the Advance of
Science) 2014 congress where hepresented his results. His poster
reflects in a clear and coherent way the knowledge he hasacquired
and hls contribution to the progress of the project. This
achievement is an evidence of hisincreasing maturity as young
scientist.For this reason, I considered he will be an excellent
candidate for graduate school.
