Ana Stevanovic, Ph.D.
Research Core Director
Phone: (210) 458-8735 | Location: AET 3.218
Dr. Stevanovic comes to UTSA after previous stints as a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University and the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Her expertise involves in-situ TEM/SEM characterization of sun-light-activated materials under externally applied stimuli: bias, temperature, gas, and liquid. Her work focuses on bridging the "pressure gap" in electron microscopy: from a static, high-vacuum to dynamic in-situ imaging of charge transport in semiconductors and real-time structural and chemical changes in catalysts. This fast-growing area of research has applications in battery research, catalysis, photovoltaics, planetary sciences, and biomedical sciences.

Alejandro Morales Betancourt, Ph.D.
Research Engineer
Alejandro is a Research Engineer at the Kleberg Advanced Microscopy Center. He received his Ph.D. in Physics and Astronomy and B.S. in Biomedical Engineering at The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). His research interest focuses on the synthesis of nanomaterials for biomedical applications. Alejandro supports KAMC users on the Panalytical Empyrean X-ray Diffractometer, SEM Hitachi SU1510, JEOL JEM-2010 F TEM, Raman Spectroscopy, and Atomic Force Microscopes.
Adis Husic
Student Intern
Adis is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at The University of Texas at San Antonio, with a B.Sc. in Physics from the University of Central Florida. Currently, he works with Dr. Xinting Yu to perform laboratory research on hazes present in Saturn’s moon, Titan. As a student intern for KAMC, Adis primarily assists users with the Zeiss Crossbeam 340, AFMs, JEOL JEM-2010 F TEM, X-ray Diffractometer, and Hitachi S 5500.
