معرفی
Aldo Mozzanica is a Researcher at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerland, affiliated with the Laboratory for X-ray Nanoscience and Technologies. He holds a degree in Physics from Insubria University and a Ph.D. from the University of Milan, where his doctoral work focused on scintillating fiber vertex detectors for CERN's Antiproton Decelerator facility. At PSI, he leads detector development projects for synchrotron and free-electron laser applications.
His research centers on advancing X-ray detector technology, including:
- Developing next-generation integrating pixel/strip detectors (JUNGFRAU, GOTTHARD)
- Improving frame rates, noise performance, and radiation hardness
- Exploring novel detector concepts for XFEL/synchrotron applications
- Enabling new experimental capabilities in structural biology and materials science
Mozzanica's 135+ publications focus on X-ray detector innovation, with recent work emphasizing:
- Hybrid pixel detector optimization for 4th-generation light sources
- On-chip digitization and charge transport modeling
- High-speed data acquisition systems
- Applications in crystallography, spectroscopy, and phase-contrast imaging
As principal developer of the JUNGFRAU detector, he oversees:
- ASIC design, testing, and characterization
- Readout electronics and firmware development
- Module production and supply chain management
- Commissioning at SwissFEL endstations
