Cristiano ALBONETTI
(CNR – ISMN)
Dr. Cristiano Albonetti is a CNR research scientist joining to the Research Division on "Nanotechnology of Multifunctional Materials" at the CNR Institute for the Study of Nanostructured Materials (ISMN, Molecular Design Department). He performs experimental research activities on: 1) scanning probe microscopy techniques (especially morphological and electrical); 2) physics of organic films growth; 3) physical modelling of the tip-surface interactions; 4) fabrication and characterization of hybrid electronic devices such as organic field-effect transistors; 5) fast and parallel techniques for nanostructures fabrication (he has one patent right on this topic). He performed also experiments on the fabrication of superficial nanostructures by using organic and inorganic materials. He has a large expertise about experimental scanning probe microscopy techniques for investigating superficial and sub-superficial material properties. He has been elected as advisor for the Italian Society of Microscopy Science. He has been responsible for ISMN in: 1) a STReP european project (ForceTool) on Scanning Force Microscopy; 2) several WPs and Deliverables of two IP european projects (Naimo and OneP) on organic electronics; 3) a national project "Fabbrica del Futuro" (MaCISte) promoted by CNR (running project). He is author of 43 publications in international journals and he has participated to more than 40 international conferences with oral presentations (few of them also as chairman).
