About the Speaker
Dr. Cristian Manzoni got his PhD in Physics at Politecnico di Milano. In 2009-2010, he was a visiting scientist at the Max Planck research group for structural dynamics (CFEL, Desy, Hamburg). Since 2010, he has been at the Institute for Photonics and Nanotechnologies of the Italian National Research Council (CNR), where he is now Research Director. He is also a contract professor of Physics at Politecnico di Milano.
His research activity focuses on the development of ultrabroadband parametric amplifiers, the characterization and manipulation of light pulses for time-resolved spectroscopy, and for the study of femtochemical reactions. Spectroscopic characterizations involve Pump-probe, 2D spectroscopy, and Raman-induced processes at femtosecond time-scales. Recently, his research activity started focusing on Fourier-transform hyperspectral imaging and microscopy in the visible and infrared spectral range, and on their coupling to ultrafast science, for applications in remote and environmental sensing, conservation science, security, and medical imaging.
