Milena De Giorgi

CNR staff, technologist director

Dr. Milena De Giorgi (female) received her PhD in Physics from Università del Salento in 2000. At the beginning, her research field was focused on the study of the optical and optoelectronic properties of semiconductor nanostructures, such as epitaxial grown quantum dots and chemical synthesized nanocrystals. During her postdoctoral experience in 2001, at Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich, she focused on the temporal dynamic in these nanostructures. From 2001 is researcher in the NNL, Istituto Nanoscienze of the Italian CNR and in the last years, she focused on the study of the phenomena in exciton polariton semiconductor microcavity and exciton-plasmon system. She has published more than 90 articles in peer reviewed journals among which 1Nature Photonics, 1 Nature Communications, 3 ACS Nano, 1 Nano Letters, 1 Advanced Optical Materials, 3 Physical Review Letters, 1 ACS Photonics.
