Giorgio Signorello

My research interest are at the intersection between semiconductor physics, optics, mechanics and nanoscale devices. I use micro-fabrication technologies, optical spectroscopy and electrical transport measurements to study new physical phenomena of opto-electronic devices subject to mechanical deformations.

I pursued my studies in physics engineering at Politenico di Milano (Italy) and Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden), and worked in different fields of applied physics, from high TC superconducting devices at the Nanotechnology Center MC2 (Sweden), to materials testing in ABB Corporate Research (Switzerland), to semiconducting devices at IBM Research (Switzerland). My research work was awarded with a PhD from University of Basel (Switzerland) in 2013 and the METAS prize 2014 for Metrology from the Swiss Physical Society.
