Activities

We have been involved in two European Commission STREP projects and many national based projects in collaboration with Italian and international laboratories

The research activity has covered the following fields.

  • logo 3D printing of bio-structures for tissue engineering


  • logo Optical sensors based on semiconductor nanostructures or functionalized metal nanoparticles

  • logo Optical characterization of self-assembled photonic crystals

  • logo Surface nano-structuring by direct lithography, UV nanoimprinting and embossing

  • logo Optical properties of graphite and graphene layers for optoelectronic and sensing applications

  • logo Emission and excitation spectroscopy in the UV-VIS-IR spectral range

  • logo Nonlinear optical materials for electroptical applications (optical modulators and ultrafast switches)

  • logo Sinthesis and electroluminescence measurements of OLED devices
