Characterization of ceramic materials viscoelastic properties, in order to optimize SOFC processing and design, avoiding the shape instability, failure and delamination of SOFC cell components. Investigation of the parameters influencing the shrinkage and shape deformation during de-binding and sintering in air and in reducing condition.

I worked on the optimization and the large-scale development of materials for solid state hydrogen storage and advanced innovative polymer lithium battery. The main activity was the investigation of the physical and mechanical properties of new electrodes and electrolyte materials by means of different experimental techniques: infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), mass spectrometry (MS), anelastic spectroscopy (internal friction) and dynamical mechanical analysis (DMA).

Partial replacement of Mn with other ions shifts the transition temperature towards low temperature, allowing good performances as electrochemical materials.- Ti-doped and undoped sodium aluminium hydride (NaAlH4) nanostructured by ball milling as promising materials for hydrogen storage.

As content expert in Physics, I was not only well acquainted with the subject but I was also trained in the art of teaching. I was involved establishment and launch of scientific laboratories. I taught general Physics supplementing it with practical activities. I facilitated and directed school teachers to assess their knowledge gaps and seek out answers on their own.

The research activity has concerned the development of advanced luminescent materials for application in optoelectronics.The systems studied consisted of coordination compounds and photo-active metallomesogens, hybrid inorganic mesoporous films and powders. Specifically, functional nano-materials have been fabricated by means of self-assembly processes, and photophysically characterized by absorption and emission spectroscopic techniques. It has been widely demonstrated that supramolecular organization of materials is fundamental in order to achieve very high emissive efficiency. In fact, the dispersion of coordination compounds in highly ordered mesoporous matrices, which restrict the interactions between chromophores and simultaneously favor their stiffness, is an efficient method to obtain ordered materials with high luminescence yield.Furthermore, this research has demonstrated how in coordination compounds, the use of ancillary ligands capable of generating soft-directional interactions or inducing liquid-crystalline properties, is fundamental to target the supramolecular organization of the molecular units in the material, and therefore obtaining molecular materials with specific photophysical properties. Luminescent iridium(III) complexes are highly appealing due to their wider range of emission energies, longer lifetimes, higher luminescence quantum yields, and for their properties of being liquid crystal systems.
