Biografia

In seguito alla laurea triennale e magistrale in Chimica ho conseguito Dottorato di Ricerca in Scienze Chimiche presso l’Università degli Studi di Firenze, 2020, lavorando sul progetto "Electrodeposition and Characterization of Thin Films".

Dopodiché sono stato assegnatario di assegni di ricerca per circa 3 anni nell’ambito della deposizione di film metallici e semiconduttori con tecniche elettrochimiche e in fase vapore, cofinanziate su progetti regionali (FESR) e di interesse nazionale (PRIN).

Attualmente, dal 2023, ricopro la posizione di Ricercatore junior (RTDa) in chimica Analitica (GSD CHEM-01/A) finanziata su fondi PNRR all’interno del progetto "Made-in-Italy circolare e sostenibile - 3A-ITALY".

Walter GIURLANI

Interessi

I miei interessi scientifici si concentrano principalmente sull’utilizzo di tecniche elettrochimiche per la deposizione e caratterizzazione di leghe metalliche per applicazioni energetiche, industriali e ricerca di base. I campioni da me prodotti vengono tipicamente analizzati con tecniche microscopiche e spettroscopiche quali SEM-EDS e XRF, (oltre ad AFM, UV-VIS, XRD, XPS, …). Sfruttando queste tecniche, ambito della Spettroscopia Analitica, ho sviluppato metodi standardless basati su simulazioni Monte Carlo e analisi multivariata per la determinazione della composizione e spessore dei film.

Walter GIURLANI

Biography

After the Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Chemistry, I obtained a PhD in Chemical Sciences at the University of Florence, 2020, working on the project "Electrodeposition and Characterization of Thin Films".
After that, I was awarded research grants for about 3 years in the field of deposition of metal and semiconductor films with electrochemical and vapor phase techniques, co-financed by regional projects (FESR) and of national interest (PRIN).
Currently, since 2023, I hold the position of Junior Researcher (RTDa) in Analytical Chemistry (GSD CHEM-01/A) funded by PNRR funds within the project "Made-in-Italy circolare e sostenibile - 3A-ITALY".

Interest

My scientific interests are mainly focused on the use of electrochemical techniques for the deposition and characterization of metal alloys for energy, industrial and basic research applications. The samples I produce are typically analyzed with microscopic and spectroscopic techniques such as SEM-EDS and XRF, (in addition to AFM, UV-VIS, XRD, XPS, ...). Using these techniques, part of Analytical Spectroscopy, I have developed standardless methods based on Monte Carlo simulations and multivariate analysis for the determination of the composition and thickness of the films.
