R E S E A R C H I N T E R E S T S
In her M.S. in Physics (1994-95,
Universita' degli Studi di Trieste, Italy) Irene D'AMICO
analyzed charged colloidal solutions using both Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Monte Carlo simulation techniques.
During her PhD (1996-2000, University of Missouri-Columbia, Columbia,
MO, USA) she studied quantum many-body systems and their dynamics, in the mainframe of time-dependent DFT and linear response theory.
In the meantime she
also kept investigating properties of charged colloidal
systems in collaboration with Prof. H. Loewen and his group
(Duesseldorf, Germany) using mostly Monte Carlo simulation techniques.
Since 1999 her research interests include spintronics and in particular
spin transport in metals and semiconductors, spin diffusion, and Coulomb
interaction effects between different spin populations.
She discovered and analyzed the spin Coulomb drag effect
in collaboration with
Prof. G. Vignale.
More recently
she has also designed spintronics single-electron devices.
Since the year 2000, initially as part of the Quantum Information Group at the
Institute for Scientific Interchange (Torino, Italy), she has developed schemes and devices for quantum information/computation based on
semiconductor quantum dots. In Torino she has also improved her competencies in nanoelectronics with a particular attention to
optoelectronics, working in collaboration with Prof. F. Rossi.
In this frame she has developed her knowledge of theoretical tools such as
direct "exact" diagonalization techniques and analytical modeling of nanostructures.
In January 2005 she has joined as Lecturer the Condensed Matter Group at the Physics Department of the
University of York. In July 2008 she has been promoted to Reader.
Her research interests include the analysis of few particle interactions
in nano and mesoscopic systems and microscopic engineering of
optical and electronic properties of semiconductor quantum dots, with a
particular emphasis on applications, especially single-electron devices. She has proposed devices to create and distribute entanglement in solid state systems and she is interested in the study of the natural dynamics of spin chains. Her recent work include the use of dynamical decopling techniques to alleviate dephasing in nanostructures and the relationship between entanglement and density functional theory.
She has contributed with more than 70 publications to major international journals and books
and given several scientific
presentations at international conferences.
Her broad expertise spans from Monte Carlo simulations to many-body
interactions, from density functional theory to quantum
information/computation, from single-electron devices to spin transport
and diffusion to optoelectronics.
