Rohit Kumar, PhD student of the Physics Department of Federico II University (tutored by Dr. Andrea Rubano) and working on the project, recently won the “STAR (Sostegno Territoriale alle Attività di Ricerca) Plus” grant. The STAR project is financially supported by the Compagnia di San Paolo. He will join Prof. Manfred Fiebig’s “Multifunctional Ferroic Materials” group based in Department of Materials, ETH Zurich – Switzerland, and he will investigate 2D ferroelectrics such as doped hafnium oxide, germanium telluride etc. using nonlinear optical techniques, and in particular second harmonic generation.
