The research activities of our group (Optical Spectroscopy of Nanostructured Materials) focus on the electronic properties of nanostructured semiconductor materials either spontaneously formed or artificially created To this end we employ optical spectroscopy techniques based on photoluminescence (PL) and its variants (PL excitation PL under magnetic field and other external perturbations) Raman scattering and second order photon correlation techniques Post growth hydrogen irradiation is also employed as a powerful tool to fine tune the material electronic properties

Laboratory for advanced quantum-optical spectroscopy

The aim of the laboratory is to investigate how physical properties arise when solid state systems shrink to the nanoscale. It is mainly devoted to atomic level controlled growth of molecular systems, low dimensional structures with desired morphology and spacing on suitable nano-structured templates. A special effort is dedicated to the growth of graphene on metallic substrates via chemical vapour deposition, graphene nanoribbons by molecular precursors, graphene nano- and micro-porous systems (see Fig. 1, right panel).
