Giampiero de Cesare, is Full Professor of Electronics, at the Department of Information Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications of the University of Rome "La Sapienza". He teaches: "Electronics" for the degree course in Computer Engineering; "Technologies and Processes for Electronics" for the master in Electronic Engineering and Nanotechnology Engineering. The scientific activity concerns the study of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si: H) in large area and low-cost electronics, for sensor applications and photovoltaic conversion. G.d.C. is Scientific Director of the DIET Microelectronic Technologies Laboratory which includes: a clean room laboratory with PVD and CVD deposition techniques, UV photolithography, and wet and dry etching systems; a UHV three-chamber PECVD system; a computer lab with tools for the design of homo/hetero-junction structures; a laboratory for the electrical and optical characterization of materials and devices. This structure made possible the phases of: 1) deposition and study of the material, 2) design and fabrication of thin film devices, 3) development of integrated systems (Lab-on-Chip) based on thin film sensor arrays for biomolecular analysis. G.d.C. was Principal Investigator of several national and European research projects, he is author of over 300 articles in international journals and congress proceedings (H-index = 27 - source SCOPUS), and 8 patents.
