Prof. Lorenzo Pavesi
The Nanoscience Laboratory (NL) studies nanophotonics, silicon-based photonics and nanobiotechnologies. Its mission is to generate new knowledge, to develop understanding and to spin-off applications from physical phenomena associated with photons and nanostructures. In particular, NL works on applying the nanoscience paradigm to silicon or silicon compatible materials to develop micro and nanosystems compatible with the main driving silicon microelectronics technologies. Nowadays, a particular emphasis is placed on nonlinear and quantum photonics and their applications.
