Researcher at Laboratory of Electron Microscopy
During my academic career, I carried out research activity on theoretical simulations of crystalline structures and study of electron transitions, as well as investigating new approaches for the controlled self-assembly of gold nanoparticles employing Transmission Electron Microscopy for characterization purposes. After my PhD, I worked as Service Engineer and Application Specialist in Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy.
My research activities in LAME point towards the study of energy materials through Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy and related spectroscopies. Furthermore, within the IMPRESS project, I am working on the development of new devices for in-situ correlative experiments with electron microscopy and synchrotron-based spectroscopic techniques.
