Eric Vesselli
University of Trieste, Italy

Erik Vesselli is associate professor in experimental condensed matter physics at the Physics Department of the University of Trieste. He is also affiliated to the Italian CNR-IOM Materials Foundry and to the Center for Energy, Environment and Transport Giacomo Ciamician.

His expertise covers state-of-the-art surface science methods, synchrotron radiation applications, and spectroscopic techniques for the characterization in situ and operando of model surfaces, nanostructures, thin films, 2D materials and heterostacks.

He is leader of the IR-Vis SFG group of the University of Trieste, implementing sum-frequency generation vibronic spectroscopy for the characterization from UHV to ambient pressure and up to the solid-liquid interface of 2D materials and surfaces.

His main scientific interests concern the catalytic synthesis of clean energy vectors and the growth and characterization of model 2D materials, biomimetic metallorganic networks, and single atom catalysts.

He authored more than 80 peer-reviewed papers, including a number of invited papers and reviews.
