Massimiliano SACCHI

PEOPLE

Massimiliano Sacchi received the Laurea Degree (cum laude) and the Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Pavia in 1995 and 1998, respectively. Since 2004 he is a Researcher of the Institute for Photonics and Nanotechnologies (IFN) of the Italian National Research Council (CNR). He is also Contract Professor at the University of Pavia for the Master Degree in Physics, where he teaches Quantum Thermodynamics. His main activity is devoted to theoretical research in Quantum Information, Quantum Thermodynamics, Quantum Communication, and Quantum Tomography.

Dr. Sacchi  is co-author of more than 90 scientific articles published on international peer-reviewed journals, with more than 4000 citations (Google Scholar).
