معرفی
Alberto Quaranta is a Full Professor at the Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Trento, where he has held academic positions since 1995 (Researcher: 1995-2006, Associate Professor: 2006-2016, Full Professor since 2016). His research focuses on radiation detection technologies, nanomaterials, and flexible electronics for applications in dosimetry, neutron detection, and medical physics.
Research Interests: Professor Quaranta's work spans radiation detection materials (scintillators, neutron detectors), optoelectronic devices, flexible sensors, and nanomaterials synthesis. Key areas include:
- Development of organic/inorganic hybrid detectors for proton therapy monitoring
- 3D-printed scintillators and radiation-hard materials
- Thin-film devices for dosimetry and beam characterization
- Nanoparticle engineering in glass matrices
- Perovskite-based radiation sensors
Publication Trends: His recent articles (2023-2025) demonstrate strong focus on:
- Flexible/organic radiation detectors for medical applications
- Advanced scintillator materials via additive manufacturing
- Nanomaterial synthesis for radiation sensing
- TCAD modeling of semiconductor detectors
- Novel approaches to neutron/gamma discrimination
