About the
Researcher
Andrea Fratalocchi
Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering

Profesor Fratalocchi's research interests focus in the use of disorder as a building block for a new technology, which can benefit from the billenary evolution of natural systems. His vision is to grab the hidden secrets of randomness to unveil novel fundamental processes and a new class of electromagnetic materials that can be assembled on large sizes with minimal costs. Applications of his research include, and are not limited to:
- New revolutionary process of energy harvesting
- A new class of nanostructures that can be assembled on very large scales and enable functional operations in ultrathin layers
- The harnessing of destructive natural phenomena at the nanoscale for the realization of unconventional functionalities for photons
- Studying of new complex imaging apparatus
- Developing of new “intelligent” lasers
Desired Project Deliverables
Learning of different nanofabrication techniques; assembly of complex materials structures for different photonics applications
