Giovanna Salvitti is a phD student at the Free Jet Microwave Spectroscopy Group of the University of Bologna, Department of Chemistry, under the supervision of prof. Assimo Maris. Her main research topic is the study of structure and inter and intramolecular interactions involving molecules and small clusters in the gas phase, through rotational spectroscopy and quantum mechanical simulations.
She is currenty at the Biomolecular Quantum Sensing laboratory of the Technical University of Munich, as phD visiting student. She is learning the basic principles of quantum sensing with spin defects in solid-state systems and she will support the research team in the development of quantum sensors based on boron vacancy centers (VB-) in hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) for the detection of magnetic fields, temperature and pressure.
