Dr. Mandeep Singh
Institute of Materials for Electronics and Magnetism (IMEM-CNR), Trento, Italy, Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK), Trento, Italy;
Dr. Mandeep Singh is a researcher at IMEM-CNR/FBK in Trento. He completed his Ph.D. in Material Science at the University of Bari, Italy, in 2016. His doctoral research focused on ZnO-Based Electrolyte-Gated Thin-Film Transistors for Biosensing. He then pursued postdoctoral work at the Sensor Lab-University of Brescia and Politecnico di Milano, where his research focused on the development of SAM-functionalized metal oxide nanowires and 2D nanohybrid-based chemical sensors, fuel cells and understanding exciton/plasmonic dynamics in heavily doped nanocrystals using femtosecond pump–probe spectroscopy. Dr. Singh also worked as a visiting researcher in Prof. Delia Milliron’s Lab at the University of Texas at Austin, where he contributed to the synthesis of colloidal nanocrystals for next-generation PV self-powered sensors and IR photodetectors. He was also a Guest Editor of the Special Issue ”Advanced Nanomaterials for Sensing” for Sensors.
Currently, his work focuses on nanostructured metal oxide-based gas sensors, ultrafast dynamics in heavily doped nanocrystals, and micro/nano-fabrication using plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD).
