Fulvio Parmigiani.

Fulvio Parmigiani (*March 3, 1949, Cremona) is an Italian physicist who has been a Fellow of the American Physical Society since 2013. He has worked on non-equilibrium physics, photoinduced phase transitions, spectroscopies of strongly correlated electron systems, magnetic materials, emerging materials, quantum materials, and non-conventional superconductors.

Career

[edit]

He obtained a Doctorate in Physics (Laurea) 1973 from the University of Milan, Italy. In 1976 he joined the quantum electronic division of CISE (Milan)[1] studying the quantum size effects on the optical and electronic properties of metal clusters.[2][3][4][5][6] He was a visiting scientist at the IBM Research Center, San José, CA, USA (1984-1985) and at the IBM Almaden Research Center, San José, CA, USA (1989-1990), working on the electronic structure of supported metal clusters and metallic layers under non-equilibrium conditions. Concurrently, he commenced experimental activities studying the physics of strongly correlated electron systems and High-Temperature Superconductors (HTSCs). Parmigiani also was employed by CISE in Milan, Italy, as a Senior Researcher in Material Science Division (1986-1988) and later as a Senior Scientist (1991-1993).[7]

In 1994, he joined the Politecnico of Milan (Italy) as a full professor of experimental physics. In 1997, he moved to the Catholic University in Brescia (Italy) as a professor of condensed matter, where he started and organized the degree in physics.[8] From 1997 to 2019, he served as a senior associate researcher at the Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste S.C.p.A., Trieste (Italy),[9] where he designed and built the beamline BACH and made instrumental contributions to the design of the seeded-free-electron-laser (s-FEL) Fermi, serving as director of Science (2004-2015).[10] In 2005, he moved to the University of Trieste, Italy, as Professor of Condensed Matter, a position he held until 2019. From 2013 to 2024, he was a professor at the International Faculty of the University of Cologne (Germany).[11] In this period, he also held professorships at the University of Groningen (Netherlands) as a Zernike Professor in 2012-2013.[12] From 2019 to 2021, he was a Visiting Professor at Radboud University Nijmegen (Netherlands). Sine 2019, he is an Elettra Fellow, continuing his long-standing association with Sincrotrone Trieste.[13] In the year 2020, he became a professor emeritus at the University of Trieste.

Research

[edit]
  • 1977-1982: Coherent Optics and Speckle-Pattern Interferometry - During this period, studies on coherent optics were undertaken, leading to random data analysis of interferometric signals through speckle-pattern interferometry.
  • 1982-1986: Quantum Confinement and Metal Clusters - Research focused on the quantum confinement effects impacting the optical and electron properties of metal clusters.
  • 1986-Present: Electron-Correlated Materials and High-Temperature Superconductors - Continued exploration of strongly electron-correlated materials, including magnetism and high-temperature superconductors (HTSCs). Investigations included core level (XPS) and valence band (ARPES-RIXS) electronic structures, as well as magnetic properties (XMCD and XMLD). Studies also covered photo-induced phase transitions, non-equilibrium physics, and phase transitions in manganites and ruthenates.
  • 1998-Present: Time-Resolved Spectroscopy and Ultrafast Processes - Experiments in time-resolved optical and photoelectron spectroscopy were conducted, including super-continuum time-resolved optical spectroscopy and both linear and non-linear time-resolved photoemission. Research also explored time and spin-resolved photoemission and image potential states in metals and graphite, aiming to clarify the ultrafast processes in condensed and soft matter.
  • 2001-2015: Contributions to FEL Facilities and Photon Science were made to the conceptual design and scientific development of major facilities like LUX (LBNL), FERMI@Elettra, and NGLS (LBNL). Efforts included advancing FEL photon beam transport, photon beam diagnostics, and establishing FEL experimental end-stations.

He has over 270 publications.[14]

Awards

[edit]
  • 2012: Awarded of the 2012 "Zernike Chair Award" by the University of Groningen.
  • 2013: Fellow of the American Physical Society.
  • 2013-2018: Honorary Professor of the Faculty of Natural Science at the University of Groningen (NL).
  • 2014: Awarded with the "Marco Polo Prize" by the Italian Embassy of Japan and the Kyoto Prefecture.
  • 2019: Fellow of the Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste.
  • 2019-2020: Fellowship of the KONINKLIJKE NEDERLANDSE AKADEMIE VAN WETENSCHAPPEN (Royal Academy of Science of Netherlands).
  • 2021: Awarded with the Beller Lectureship for the 2021 American Physical Society March Meeting.

Editorial activity

[edit]
  • He serves as an editor for Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research (A) since 2006
  • An editor for Physics Letters Reports since 2012.
  • 2012-present: Editor of Physics Reports for the Condensed Matter Section (Elesevier).
