Simone Bianconi

Electrical Engineering & Computer Science

Faculty Mentor: Hooman Mohseni

Research

Simone Bianconi received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in energy and nuclear engineering from the University of Bologna, Italy, in 2013 and 2015, respectively. His current research is focused on developing new materials and devices based on III-V semiconductors for the detection and modulation of infrared light. Infrared light is a prominent investigation tool in several fields, from medicine to astronomy, as well as a primary carrier of information, both in free space (e.g. detection and ranging) and in optical fibers. Improving the performance of state-of-the-art devices for infrared detection will therefore enable breakthroughs in the above mentioned disciplines.
