Biography
Raffaella Signorini has been working as an Associate Professor in Physical
Chemistry at the Department of Chemical Sciences of the University of Pa-
dova since October 2015. Her research activity: (i) Characterization of the
optical properties of chromophores characterized by reverse saturable ab-
sorption (RSA) and two photon absorption (TPA), and development of an
optical limiting device capable to protect frompulsed and CW laser radiation
in a wide frequency band; (ii) Investigation of the up-converted stimulated
emission of chromophores in suitable laser cavities and development of an
integrated laser device; (iii) Characterization of the two photon induced flu-
orescence of organic multipolar chromophores; (iv) Investigation of hybrid
sol-gel materials properties, displaying photocatalitic activity; (v) Micro and
sub-micro fabrication via two photon induced polymerization of polymer-
ic and sol-gel materials; (vi) Realization and characterization of plasmonic
nanostructures for sensing applications. She is an author of almost fifty pa-
pers on international journals and books, and two patents.
