Now life is not only science, I would therefore use this opportunity to thank my best friend Rosi for her patience and care during good and tough times in the Ph.D. pursuit. Always beside me. Finally, I would like to dedicate this work to my family: my grandmother Carmen and my grandfather Jesús always in my mind, my brother Jesús for his way of being, and very especially my parents María del Carmen and Alfonso for their unending love and support from ever. Thank you.
