Biography

She completed my Chemistry degree after an internship at the Institut de Chimie Moléculaire et des Matériaux d'Orsay (University of Paris XI) and in Chemical Science at the University of Cagliari under the guidance of Professor Francesco Secci. Subsequently, I embarked on a PhD in Physics at the University of Cagliari, where I joined the Materials Science and Optical Spectroscopy research group (TREETOP) under the supervision of Professor Pier Carlo Ricci. During my PhD, I had the opportunity to conduct research at the College of Engineering (University of Notre Dame, Indiana, USA) under the mentorship of Professor Svetlana Neretina for three months and at the Institute of Electrochemistry (University of Ulm, Germany) in the research group led by Professor Radim Beranek for four months.

Throughout my doctoral research, I focused on exploring carbon nitride materials for their potential applications in photonics and photocatalysis. This involved synthesizing and characterizing various carbon-based nanoparticles and studying their optical and photocatalytic properties.

Currently, I am working as a researcher (RTdA) in the Physics Department at the University of Cagliari. My research interests revolve around investigating new materials for lighting and photocatalytic applications. I am actively involved in the synthesis and characterization of carbon-based nanoparticles, exploring their properties and potential applications in various fields.

Overall, my academic journey has provided me with valuable experiences and opportunities to collaborate with renowned researchers in different countries. I am passionate about pushing the boundaries of knowledge in the field of materials science and contributing to the development of innovative solutions for practical applications.
