Aurora Rizzo

Senior researcher

I am a senior researcher at CNR-NANOTEC. In 2008, I was awarded a PhD in Materials and Innovative Technologies for my thesis on “Hybrid Colloidal Nanocrystal Organic Based LEDs”. In 2008-2009, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the biomolecular and organic electronics group led by Prof. Inganäs at Linköping University (Sweden). My work focused on developing bio-organic light-emitting diodes. In 2010, I established the Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV) Lab at CNR-Nanotec in Lecce, of which I am now in charge of. Since then, I have been involved as PI or scientific responsible for CNR-Nanotec of on various projects focused on the development of innovative hybrid materials for optoelectronic devices. I have authored over 100 articles published in international scientific journals, three patents and two book chapters. My scientific interests lie in the development of hybrid organic/inorganic materials, with a particular focus on metal halide perovskite polycrystalline/single crystal materials and perovskite polymer composites for optoelectronic and photonic devices.
