Profesor Fratalocchi's research interests focus in the use of disorder as a building block for a new technology, which can benefit from the billenary evolution of natural systems. His vision is to grab the hidden secrets of randomness to unveil novel fundamental processes and a new class of electromagnetic materials that can be assembled on large sizes with minimal costs. Applications of his research include, and are not limited to: new revolutionary process of energy harvesting; a new class of nanostructures that can be assembled on very large scales and enable functional operations in ultrathin layers; the harnessing of destructive natural phenomena at the nanoscale for the realization of unconventional functionalities for photons; studying of new complex imaging apparatus; developing of new “intelligent” lasers.
