Maurizio Dabbicco

CNR Position: Associate researcher

Maurizio Dabbicco received his Physics (’89) and Ph.D. (’93) degrees from the University of Bari, Italy. For two years (’94-’95) he was Research Assistant at the Clarendon Laboratory, University of Oxford, UK. He joined the Physics Department of the University of Bari in ’96 and became Professor of Experimental Physics in ’05.

His research interests embrace semiconductor nonlinear and quantum optics, development of new optical characterization techniques for optoelectronic materials, novel applications of photonic and optoelectronic devices in the field of mechatronics and industrial metrology. He has co-authored more than 70 papers and four patent applications and has given several presentations at international conferences. He is currently referee of a few optics journals and project evaluator of the Italian Ministry of Research and University (MIUR). In the last 10 years has been the coordinator and chief investigator of several national and international projects also in partnership with leading industrial companies, funded above 1 M€.

M. Dabbicco was awarded a National Research Council (CNR) Fellowship (1992) and an European Union Training Fellowship (1994). He is an Associate staff member of the Institute of Photonics and Nanotechnologies of CNR and of several national and international optics societies.
