Her experimental research activity focuses on the study of the opto-electronic transport properties of advanced semiconductor materials and nano-micro-devices, in particular, on the processes of ionizing radiation-matter interaction in innovative functional semiconductors (organic, inorganic and perovskite) and on the ionic-electronic signal transduction in micro-structures and nano-biointerfaces, for the development of electronic biosensors.
The characterization of the electron transport properties and of the damage induced by irradiation by charged particles and ionizing radiation (X and gamma rays) is performed, also by analyzing the electrical activity of lattice defects. The modifications induced in the distribution of the density of the active electronic states and in the charge transport processes by structural and morphological modifications of the material are studied. Particular attention to functional thin films and to innovative electronic devices that use such materials as an active element, such as thin film transistors deposited from solution on unconventional substrates (e.g. plastics, fabrics, cellulose)
