Pengarang: Vincenzo Palermo

Paolo Samorì is full professor of Physical Chemistry and senior member as well as deputy director of the Institute of Science and Supramolecular Engineering of the University of Strasbourg and the National Center for Scientific Research where he is Director of the Nanochemistry Laboratory. His research interests span applications of scanning probe microscopies, supramolecular electronics and the fabrication of molecular-scale nanodevices. Paolo Samorì has received numerous awards, including the IUPAC Prize for Young Chemists in 2001, the Vincenzo Caglioti award in 2006 granted by the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, the “Nicolò Copernico” award in 2009 (Italy), the prix “Guy Ourisson” in 2010 du Cercle Gutenberg and the CNRS Silver Medal in 2012. Vincenzo Palermo is the leader of the research unit “Functional Organic Materials” of the National Research Council of Italy (CNR). In his work, he uses nanotechnology and supramolecular chemistry to create materials based on organic semiconductors and graphene for electronics and energy applications. He is one of the founders of the Graphene Flagship European initiative, and leader of the flagship work package on nanocomposites. Vincenzo Palermo has been awarded the Lecturer Award for Excellence of the Federation of European Materials Societies, as well as the Research Award of the Italian Society of Chemistry (SCI).
