Om mig
I am Professor and former Swedish Research Council Special Research Fellow (Rådsforskare) for the discipline “Semiconductor physics, electronics, electrical engineering and photonics” at the Department of Applied Physics at KTH, where I head the Nonlinear and Quantum Photonics Group. At national level, I am directing the Quantum Communication program in the Swedish Quantum Flagship (WACQT) and the National Quantum Communication Infrastructure (NQCIS) in EuroQCI.
Research Interests
Nonlinear and Integrated Optics, Ferroelectrics, Quantum Optics amd Integrated Photonics, All-Optical Signal Processing, Biophotonics.
Short CV
My Alma Mater is the University ‘La Sapienza’ in Rome (Italy), where I graduated with a MSc in Electronic Engineering in 1997. I got a PhD in Electronic Engineering in Italy with joint with M. Fejer's group at Stanford University (1998) and a PhD in Physics from the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis (France) in 2001. Before joining KTH, I was Senior Research Fellow at the Optoelectronics Research Centre in Southampton, UK (2001-2007).
At KTH I lead the Nonlinear Quantum Photonics group, whose research activity spans theory, technology and experiments on integrated photonic circuits, ferroelectric and nanophotonic devices, photonic crystals and integrated all-optical devices, with a focus on the fundamental physics and applications of nonlinear and guided-wave interactions in quantum and classical regimes.
