Barbara Patrizi (Ph.D) is a researcher at the National Institute of Optics, National Research Council (CNR-INO) and European Laboratory for Non-Linear Spectroscopy (LENS), Sesto Fiorentino (Italy).
Her main research interests are devoted to the study of new materials for optical application utilizing a range of advanced spectroscopic techniques. A significant part of his research activity is devoted to the spectroscopic and laser performance characterization of new solid state laser materials based polycrystalline ceramics doped with Yb3+ and Tm3+ such as YAG (Yttrium Aluminium Garnet), YSAG (Yttrium Scandium/Aluminum Garnet), LuAG (Lutetium Aluminium Garnet), Gd-YAG (Gadolinium Yttrium Aluminium Garnet), pure and mixed compositions sesquioxides (Lu2O3; Y2O3, Sc2O3), fluoride (CaF2). Her research activities also encompass the study and characterization of metasurfaces for optical and sensing applications, as well as ultrafast spectroscopy for the photophysical study of molecules and materials. Co-author of more than 60 papers on international peer-reviewed journals.

Alberto is a PhD candidate in Chemical and Materials Sciences at the University of Pisa. His research spans a diverse range of topics, including quantum mechanical simulations of solid-state systems and the design of metasurfaces for optical applications. He frequently employs advanced computational tools such as CP2K, CASTEP, and Quantum ESPRESSO for Density Functional Theory (DFT) simulations. For metasurface design, Alberto utilizes COMSOL Multiphysics. Recently, his work has increasingly focused on the development of tunable metasurfaces, particularly those responsive to anexternal magnetic field.
