Photon Management Assisted by Surface Waves on Photonic Crystals

Angelo Angelini is a Post-doctoral Fellow in the Department of Applied Science and Technology (DISAT) at the Polytechnic of Turin, where he carries out teaching and research focusing on the development of 3D imaging techniques and the characterization of optically driven devices. Dr. Angelini graduated in Physics Engineering at the Polytechnic of Turin in 2011. During the course of his studies, he spent 6 months at the Biomedical Engineering Department of Columbia University. On the basis of his research activity at the National Institute of Metrological Research (INRIM) and at the Polytechnic of Turin, he completed his doctorate in electronic devices in 2015, for which he was awarded the Best PhD Student Award 2015. Dr. Angelini is the author of more than 15 papers in highly regarded scientific journals and is a reviewer for several international journals. He is co-inventor of a patent and has been an invited speaker at international and national conferences.
