Andrea Notargiacomo (PhD in Physics) is permanent staff researcher at the Institute of Photonics and Nanotechnologies (IFN) of the CNR in Rome since 2009. He has been in charge of the micro/nano-fabrication facility of IFN-CNR (Rome) from 2012 to 2014. From 2018 he is responsible for the IFN- CNR activities within the “NanoMicroFab” Open Research Infrastructure which provides technological support to academic and private entities operating in the field of micro/nano-electronics (www.nanomicrofab.eu, funded by Regione Lazio – Call for Research Infrastructures). He is member of the “TECH4BIO” Inter-Institute Virtual Laboratory of the CNR, which provides multidisciplinary technological skills for applications in the biomedical and biotech fields.
His expertise includes:
– Fabrication and characterization of nanostructured materials and micro / nano devices (ZnO, graphene, SiGe)
– Synthesis / growth of nanostructures and semiconductor films (ZnO, Ge, Si, SiGe, graphene)
– Realization and study of sensors, bio-sensors and energy harvesting devices with ZnO nanostructures
– Development of innovative scanning probes for imaging, electrical measurements and nanolithography with atomic force microscopy (AFM, C-AFM, Local Oxidation)
– Study of the distribution of chemical elements in cells: morphological investigations by imaging with scanning probe microscopy
He has been the coordinator of the CNR research unit in “FIRB Futuro in Ricerca” project funded by MIUR-ITALY on the realization and study of ZnO micro and nanostructures for nanogenerators.
NANOBOOK: NANOTECNOLOGIE PER LANCIARE UN MESSAGGIO DI SPERANZA
I “NANOBOOKS” sono supporti realizzati da chip di silicio che, sotto forma di milioni di nano-buchi “incisi“ mediante nanotecnologie, riportano in forma ultra-miniaturizzata il contenuto della pubblicazione “Perché hai paura? Non avete ancora fede? Statio Orbis 27 marzo 2020”. Un minuscolo oggetto lanciato nello spazio all’interno di un Cubesat 3U nell’ambito della Missione Speisatelles per comunicare un grande messaggio di speranza.
