1. Relazione scientifica riassuntiva
La missione della scuola di dottorato è di migliorare le conoscenze ed educare studenti nel campo
delle nanotecnologie al fine di formare scienziati e tecnici per il 21° secolo. La caratteristica della
Scuola è l‟interdisciplinarità: sugli argomenti di ricerca attivi lavorano in sinergia fisici, chimici,
biologi, ingegneri, medici, farmacologi, odontoiatri, biotecnologi e laureati in Agraria, mantenendo
e rafforzando la specificità della cultura di provenienza ed acquisendo la capacità di sviluppare la
propria ricerca in un quadro più ampio.
L‟obiettivo principale della Scuola è di formare Ricercatori che sappiano progettare, costruire,
utilizzare e sottoporre a prove di funzionalità strumenti e dispositivi nano tecnologici, in grado di
rispondere alle crescenti e diversificate esigenze delle applicazioni. L'allievo “dottorato” di questa
Scuola sarà un professionista della ricerca e dello sviluppo tecnologico che sappia applicare le
proprie conoscenze, con capacità di valutazione critica, allo sviluppo di metodi di progettazione,
produzione e valutazione di nuovi materiali e al miglioramento di quelli esistenti. Questo anche
mirato ad una produzione industriale più efficace, economica e sostenibile dal punto di vista delle
risorse e dell'ambiente. La scuola è stata fondata nel 2006 a partire da un dottorato in
nanotecnologie.
Gli obiettivi delle ricerche sono i seguenti:
Sviluppo di nuove tecniche sperimentali per lo studio, la lavorazione, la manipolazione e la
visualizzazione su scala nanometrica di materiali nanostrutturati.
Sviluppo di tecniche spettroscopiche di rivelazione di singola molecola su substrati
nanostrutturati.
Studio delle relazioni tra la microstruttura e le proprietà dei materiali e ingegnerizzazione di
materiali nanostrutturati.
Sintesi di nanostrutture.
Applicazioni delle nanotecniche e nanostrutture a ricerche di interesse biomedico ed
energetico.
Modellizzazione molecolare multiscala di materiali e di fenomeni di interesse attraverso
tecniche di simulazione computazionale.
Salute umana con particolare attenzione allo studio ed al trattamento di tumori e malattie
degenerative.
Applicazione delle nanotecnologie nei settori medico, farmacologico e biomedico
Questi obiettivi sono perseguiti avvalendosi delle attrezzature d'avanguardia disponibili nei
laboratori dell'Università di Trieste e degli Enti di ricerca pubblici e privati convenzionati con
l‟Università di Trieste: il centro internazionale di ingegneria genetica e Biotecnologie (ICGEB), il
Sincrotrone TS, il CRO di Aviano ed il laboratorio nazionale TASC- INFM- CNR.

Dottorandi del 22 ciclo:
Candidate Matteo Maria Dalmiglio
Title of the thesis: Reactivity and oxidation properties of catalytic supported nanoclusters
Supervisor: Luca Gregoratti
Tutors (if any):
Research Activity
The research activities performed in this 3 years were focused on studying the reactivity and
oxidation properties of catalytic supported nanocluster on oxide films and carbon nanotubes
(CNTs), by means of different chemical and structural characterization techniques; in particular the
main technique used was the scanning photoemission spectromicroscopy (SPEM) available at the
EscaMicroscopy beamline of the Elettra Synchrotron Light Source. This novel experimental
technique allows sample‟s chemical mapping with a spatial resolution of 100nm and the acquisition
of photoemission spectra on regions with the same dimension. In particular we studied PtRh cluster
deposited by PLD (pulsed laser deposition) on a tungsten single crystal (W(110)) covered by a thin
magnesium oxide film (MgO).
The starting of the research activities related to this project was preceded by a training aimed to
become familiar with the experimental setup and data acquisition procedures. During this time I
participated to several user beamtime. The first action strictly related to my thesis was focused on
the realization of a setup for the coverage of a micron-sized region of a single MCNT by using
commercial and home-made masks. This setup was used to produce nanoclusters covered patches as
model systems to investigate surface and bulk diffusion, mass transport, etc. The cluster‟s
characterization and study was performed with AFM (atomic force microscope) and SEM (scanning
electron microscope) in collaboration with other laboratory at Elettra and TASC.
Afterwards different experiments were made with the aim to understand the nanoclusters catalytic
activity during oxidation and reduction conditions. It was demonstrated that under an atomic
oxygen flux a selected oxidation occurs: rhodium atoms undergo stronger and faster oxidation than
platinum ones. Furthermore, the oxidation process is composed by many intermediate steps, in
which metastable oxides are formed. Very small cluster‟s oxidation (<10nm diameter) is
significantly faster then the bigger one (>100nm). Some morphological and structural clusters‟
modifications after long oxidation treatments were also investigated using a high resolution SEM
(<2nm lateral resolution).
In this last third year the nanocluster reactivity towards redox reactions after many reaction cycles
has been investigated in detail; the chemical characterizations have been carried out on the as
8
deposited particles and on the same particles after many reactions cycles in order to probe the
modifications of the catalysts. The results obtained confirm some previous evidences on the
decreasing oxides‟ stability. In fact after the same oxidation rate the “aged” particles are easily
reduced; sometimes the photon beam intensity was enough to reduce the samples in a spectra
acquisition time.
Some other measurements were performed at the Nanospectroscopy beamline where it‟s possible to
use a LEEM microscope ((Low Energy Electron Microscope) that combines a high spatial
resolution (<5nm) to a high sensitivity to surface structural modifications. In particular the
behaviour of the clusters‟ polycrystalline structure was studied during oxidation-reduction
treatments. It was shown that the clusters‟ surface is polycrystalline: the nano crystals on the surface
had different orientation from region to region of the sample and undergo different oxidation rate.
The diffraction pattern revealed that after a long oxidation all the informations on the long range
order are completely lost. Other experiments were realized with SEM and AFM for studying the
clusters‟ morphology and behaviour at different annealing temperature. The results showed
structural and surface morphology changes on the clusters‟ facets.
Along this year a peer review paper that summarizes the main results obtained during this PhD has
been submitted to the Journal of Physical Chemistry .
Other time was dedicated to prepare posters and presentations for conferences and a summer school
on reactivity of nanoparticles in different European countries.

Candidate PAOLO LACOVIG
Title of the thesis: Electronic structure, morphology and chemical reactivity of nanoclusters and
low-dimensional systems: fast photoemission spectroscopy studies
Supervisor: Dr. Alessandro BARALDI (Physics Department – Uni TS)
Tutors (if any): Dr. Silvano LIZZIT (Sincrotrone Trieste S.C.p.A.)
Research Activity
During the three-year PhD research project Paolo Lacovig was involved in the development of
innovatory instrumentation for high energy- and high temporal-resolution acquisitions of
photoemission spectra and its applications. From the latter point of view the experimental activity
hinged on the study of several physical systems for which the characteristics of the new
experimental set-up have been fully exploited.
The first year activity was focused on the hardware and software development for the new electron
energy analyser installed on the SuperESCA beamline at the Elettra synchrotron light source. The
analyser commissioning phase focused on the estimation of the energy (25 meV) and temporal
resolution (80 ms) achievable with the new instrumentation in synchrotron radiation photoemission
experiments. The innovative properties of this novel instrument have been exploited for
investigations on the electronic structure, morphology and chemical properties of low-dimensional
systems.
One of the most significant results concerns the understanding of the modifications in the chemical
reactivity of bimetallic interfaces due to the different thickness of the pseudomorphically grown
overlayer. In the case of Pd-Ru bimetallic interface, we found out how the surface electronic
structure, and its chemical properties as a consequence, can be tuned by varying the number of Pd
atomic layers grown on the Ru(0001) surface.
The temporal resolution achieved with the new electron energy analyser allowed studies on
dynamical processes up to now inaccessible; in particular the investigation of the the graphene
growth process at high temperature on transition metal surfaces (Ir, Pt and Rh) and the study of the
chemical reactivity of Pt nanoclusters supported on MgO. In the first case, we discovered that
graphene formation proceeds via preliminary nucleation of dome-shaped C nano-islands. In the
second case, we succeded in following both the dynamics of CO adsorption process and the
CO+O2→CO2 reaction on Pt nano-clusters grown on a ultra-thin film of magnesium oxide.
Finally, the morphology of Pd, Pt, Rh and Au nanoclusers grown on different carbon-based
substrates (namely graphite, single-walled carbon nanotubes and graphene) has been characterized.
Among the most interesting results we report the understanding of the dependence of the metalsubstrate interaction on the cluster size and the role of defects in the nucleation and intercalation
processes.

Title of the thesis: “Development of nanostructured catalysts for hydrogen production and
purification”
Supervisor: Prof. Paolo Fornasiero
Tutor: Dr. Tiziano Montini
Research Activity
During the three years of PhD, catalytic systems for hydrogen production and purification were
synthetized and characterized. In the first year, catalysts based on transition metal supported on
ZnO/Al2O3 were developed for methanol and ethanol steam reforming. The activity was carried out
in collaboration with ACTA s.p.a.. This collaboration was continued during the second year, when
the research activity was directed to the development of systems based on ruthenium embedded into
porous oxides for hydrogen production from ammonia cracking reaction. Finally, during the last
year, the complete characterization of the developed catalysts confirmed that the embedded
approach leads to nanostructured catalysts with very good catalytic activity and high thermal
stability. Moreover, with the scientific collaboration of ACTA s.p.a, non noble metal catalysts (Fe
and Mo based) were synthesized for ammonia cracking. These Fe-Mo based catalysts were prepared
by classical impregnation method with great attention to the role of either the metal and the support.
The effect of K doping on the catalytic activity and stability was considered on the most active
systems for NH3 cracking; enhancement of the catalytic activity was observed only for catalyst
prepared by co-impregnation with salt of potassium at low concentration (< 0.5%). During the third
PhD year, a new project concerning the development of catalysts for glycerol reforming was also
started. Pt based catalysts supported on Al2O3 were developed, characterized and tested. The
introduction of CeO2 and La2O3 as dopants increases the H2 yields and the thermal stability in
reaction conditions.
Part of the results obtained in collaboration with ACTA s.p.a. is still confidential and it will not be
presented during the final examination.

Research Activity
During the first year of activity, the subject of the study has been the “target therapy” in
oncology, particularly related to protein-drug systems characteristic of diseases as chronic
myeloid leucemia (LMC) and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) using molecular
simulations methods in the framework of a collaboration with the Istituto Tumori of Milan.
During the second year, the attention was pointed to the study of the c-KIT complex, often
mutated in GIST, with various inhibitors in another collaboration with the M.D. Anderson
hospital of Houston (TX, USA). In this framework we performed studies on primary and
secondary mutations and direct energetic and structural comparison between complexes
composed of c-KIT with two inhibitor drugs (imatinib and dasatinib), and the therapy
response. In the last year of activity, the study of the KIT L576P mutation, present in few
rare tumors, was investigated further and, together with the Istituto Tumori of Milan, we
explored the causes of such decreased affinity for imatinib reported by this mutation. This
study provided very interesting results, highlighting how other inhibitors (sorafenib and
nilotinib) can show the same affinity problems of imatinib with kinases, being their
penetrations in the binding pocket of c-KIT extremely similar. On the contrary, drugs like
dasatinib and sunitinib, that bind rather differently with the receptor, seem not to be affected
by the presence of the L576P mutation. In conclusion, the study of a set of several mutations
on the c-KIT-imatinib complex, again in collaboration with the M.D. Anderson hospital,
evidenced an optimal accordance between the results obtained in silico and the clinical
evidences, demonstrating the reliability and the potentiality of molecular simulation as a
powerful tool for biomedical survey.

Title of the thesis: Multiscale molecular simulation of nanostructured systems
Supervisor: prof. M. Fermeglia
Tutors (if any): prof. S. Pricl
Research Activity
In recent years considerable interest and economic resources have been devoted to the
nanotechnology and particularly to nanostructured materials by the European and international
community. Their potential is related to the fact that these materials posses a structure at the
nanometer level which confers macroscopic properties not comparable or detectable in common
materials. To date, the knowledge of the properties and characteristics at the nanometric level and
the resulting relations with the macroscopic performances achieved by the material are limited.
Molecular simulation techniques are valuable tools that can be used not only to increase the
understanding of phenomena at the molecular level, but also as a support for more efficient and
sustainable design of new systems.
The aim of the research was to develop novel procedures in the framework of a multiscale
simulation approach to be applied to systems of industrial interest, with the ultimate goal of creating
an effective tool effectively for the design and implementation of new nanostructured materials. The
systems analyzed belong to different fields, ranging from polymeric nanocomposite materials, to
epoxy resins, block copolymers, and gels for biomedical applications, in order to demonstrate the
broad applicability of the developed methodology.
As an example, the key results obtained in the case of three systems are summarized briefly: (i)
block copolymers (polystyrene-poly(vinylpyridine)) loaded with metal nanoparticles of gold, (ii)
cross-linked epoxy resins (based on glycidoxy propyl silane) with nanoparticles of titanium oxide,
(iii) composite polymers (polyethylene oxide, nylon 6, …) in the presence of lamellar silicates
(montmorillonite).
(i) The morphology of the copolymer, when loaded with metallic particles functionalized with one
or both polymeric building blocks in different percentages, has been predicted. In particular, the
effect of concentration, degree and type of covering (enthalpic effect) and shape (entropic effect) of
the nanoparticle on the morphology of the final composite was assessed, highlighting the
thermodynamic parameters that can be used to control the dispersion of the metal in the polymer.
(ii) A code for the simulation of the crosslinked matrix was developed, and the thermo-mechanical
characteristics as a function of the degree of crosslinking achieved during the reaction has been
evaluated. Accordingly, it has been possible to predict the mechanical properties of composite
material as a function of volume concentration of nanofiller.
(iii) A procedure has been create to calculate macroscopic properties of the nanocomposite
materials (such as mechanical properties - Young‟s modulus, shear modulus, bulk modulus,
Poisson's ratio – thermal properties- thermal expansion coefficient- electrical properties – electrical
conductivity) depending on the concentration of clay and the quality of the dispersion starting only
from molecular information of the material. According to the conceived computational recipe, no
22
experimental data are required as input at any scale level. In addition, we have analyzed the
molecular interactions between the components of the system and assessed the impact of those on
the final properties of the material, providing a tool for a better evaluation and a priori selection of
each component.

Title of the thesis:
“Nanocomposite systems based on metal nanoparticles and polysaccharides for biomedical
applications”
Supervisor: Prof. Sergio Paoletti
Tutor: Dott. Ivan Donati
Research Activity
The Ph.D research project refers to the development of nanocomposite systems for biomedical
applications and is included in the framework of the European Project called “Newbone”; in
particular, the final goal is to realize coatings for orthopedic prosthesis endowed with antimicrobial
properties. Nanocomposite systems based on natural polysaccharides that stabilize metal
nanoparticles (silver and gold) in colloidal solutions and as three-dimensional hydrogels are been
studied, as antimicrobial agents. During the first and second year of the Ph.D we have set up the
protocols for the preparation of the colloidal solutions and of the hydrogels containing the metal
nanoparticles on the basis of physical-chemical and biological characterizations. Moreover we have
studied and defined a particular chemical mechanism of silver ions reduction carried out by a
lactose modified chitosan; the optical properties of the so-formed metallic nanoparticles obtained
via this mechanism were tested by means of Raman spectroscopy, thus detecting the possibility to
have considerable enhancements of the signal due to the SERS effect (Surface Enhanced Raman
Spectroscopy). Thanks to the antibacterial properties of silver, the nanocomposite gels display
potent bactericidal activity without showing cytotoxic effects towards eucariotic cells, as verified by
both in vitro and in vivo tests. This result is particularly important in relation to the state of the art in
this research field. Since the core material of the prosthesis is realized in methacrylic materials,
during the third year of Ph.D we have devised a technique for coating of substrates based on its
activation followed by deposition of the bioactive nanocomposite due to introduction of negative
charges on the substrate surface, the coating is grafted by means of electrostatic interactions with
the polysaccharide chains. Biological in vitro tests have demonstrated that the antimicrobial activity
persists together with the lack of cytotoxicity, determining the choice of this coating for the final in
vivo test as a conclusion of the European project. The main characterization techniques employed
were UV-Vis and Raman spectroscopy, TEM, SEM and AFM microscopy, Confocal Fluorescence
Microscopy, Mechanical bending tests, ICP-MS as well as other cellular and microbiological
techniques. The results obtained during this Ph.D have been published on scientific journals, books,
abstracts, posters and proceedings of International Congresses; based on theses results two Italian
Patents were filed and the PCT extension is being processed.

Title of the thesis: Stress state and crystallographic analysis in relation to the ageing process in submicron composite Zirconia - Alumina
Supervisor: Prof. Valter Sergo
Tutors (if any):
Research Activity
The focus of research concerns the analysis of composites Alumina - Zirconia in relation to the
phenomenon of aging of zirconium, in light of the renewed interest of this material in dental field.
The zirconia was mentioned by several articles of literature in dentistry as a main material for the
construction of dentures, but these articles do not deal in sufficient depth the issue of ageing and its
consequences.
In the first phase of the research work were analyzed several samples, having undergone a natural
aging in the atmosphere of about 10 years, differentiated by size of ceramic powders and the initial
volumetric
rate
of
aluminum.
In the second phase was analyzed a second set of samples made with the aim of verifying the actual
aging of the composite through an artificial aging process that is followed by a third set of samples
which vary in the relative amounts of alumina and zirconia. In both cases it was monitored the
development in time of phase transformation by Raman spectroscopy. Through the simultaneous
use of AFM and NSOM has developed a method for selective identification of each grain in order
to Raman measurements at the nanoscale in single point. (In collaboration with the Dental Clinic

Title of the thesis: DEVELOPMENT OF NOVEL EXPERIMENTAL METHODS FOR
CELL TRACKING USING NANOPARTICLES
Supervisor: Dr. Fulvia Arfelli
Tutors (if any): Dr. Rer.Nat. Ralf-Hendrik Menk
Research Activity
The aim of this project is to develop novel experimental methods for cell tracking using
nanoparticles as contrast agent. The goal is to quantify and follow the cells during them life. The
using of nanoparticles (NPs) as well as a suitable tomographic X-ray imaging setup can be a good
solution of the problem above mentioned. During the past year we have done a double experiment
at the SYRMEP beamline (synchrotron radiation facility) and at the TOMOLAB laboratory
(microfocus X-Ray tube facility). The samples were 20 rat‟s heads ex-vivo that were injected into
the brain with the same amount of gold loaded C6 cells. The rats were sacrificed at different
moments in order to estimate the tumor visibility during its grow. The results‟ analysis has confirm
the cells‟ visibility obtained last year. We have found some troubles doing the quantitative analysis
due to some results in conflict caused by the small number of samples. We have found also another
problem related by the small bone pieces created during the hole drilling before the cell injection.
The instrumentation that we were using didn‟t allow us to separate the bone powder signal to the
marked cells signal. This can represent a technique limitation in this kind of experiments especially
if we want to count the cells. With the aim to better understand this problem, during the transfer at
the synchrotron Canadian Light Source (CLS, Saskatoon, Canada) we have prepared dedicated
samples containing the same kind of labeled cells and bone powder into agarose gel. At the CLS
I‟ve contributed to the set up of a tomography system. We have used it to scan also the samples
prepared. We have grown part of the same marked cells on a metalize cover slip in order to
visualize the cells on the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). During the SEM measurements at
the TASC laboratories (Area di Ricerca, Basovizza) we have shown that it is possible to estimate
the amount of NPs on single cell. This is a different approach respect to the mass spectroscopy
approach that provides a mean gold weight of a large number of cells.
On the instrumental part of my work, during the last year, we have complete the new double crystal
analyzer setup for the Analyzer Based Imaging (ABI) now available at the SYRMEP beamline.
This setup permits new imaging modalities based on phase contrast instead on absorption contrast,
increasing the details visibility. During an experimental run dedicated, we have used the ABI to one
rat ex-vivo that was injected with marked C6 cells. Again at the SYRMEP beamline, we have
installed an experimental setup that permits to increase the imaging system resolution using the
beam diffraction of two silicon crystals cut asymmetrically (Bragg Magnifier). During this
33
experiment, we have done a tomography on one of the samples prepared in Canada (the C6 cells in
agarose gel) obtaining a single cell resolution (pixel size ~1 μm; PSF ~5 μm).
Objectives for the following year (if applicable)
Implementation of a cell counting software in IDL code (to be applied to samples with a well
known number of cells); studies and estimation of the NPs clusters partition during the mitosis
using SEM; new measurements of ABI (beamtime approved for the first part of 2010); tomographic
measurements on ex-vivo mice using marked stem cells (beamtime approved for the first part of
2010); implementation and use of “local area tomography” algorithms to scan with high resolution
only a zone of big samples; implementation and use of tomosynthesis algorithms to decrease the
mean dose to the sample; magnetic resonance imaging measurements and histological studies of
some already CT scanned samples to confirm what we have seen in CT (possible transfer at the
Australian Synchrotron in Melbourne). Implementation and use of a system for fluorescent
measurements.

Title of the thesis: Biopolymer based scaffold for tissue engineering
Supervisor: Prof.Sergio Paoletti
Tutors (if any):Dott. Biasotto Matteo
Research Activity
The aim of my study is the development of biocomposite scaffolds for orthopedic applications,
based on the combination of polysaccharides (mainly alginate, Alg) engineered with bioactive
molecules and nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAp). In the first year of PhD, I have synthesized and
characterized the different components of the scaffold; furthermore I have prepared the composite
(Alg/Hap scaffolds) and studied their biological and structural properties. During the second year of
PhD, according the results obtained from the previous cytocompatibility tests, I have performed
preliminary in vivo tests. The animal model was New Zealand rabbit and the produced scaffolds
were inserted into bone defects on femur. Post-operatively, five fluorochromes were administered
sequentially every week. After 1 and 2 months, the rabbits were sacrificed and all the implanted
bones were analyzed using µ-CT and light and confocal microscopy. We observed a high level of
osteointegration of the scaffolds and ingrowth of newly deposited structured lamellar bone inside
them, indicating good osteoconductive properties. To introduce bioactive molecules and
antimicrobial agents, enhancing in this way the biological property of the scaffolds, we exploited
chitlac as vector. Chitlac is a lactitolated-derivative of chitosan that can be modified by chemical
grafting of bioactive peptides like RGD and that can be use to produce and stabilize silver
nanoparticles (nAg) with antimicrobial activity. By adsorbing the chitlac on the scaffold‟s surface
we spread the bio-signal inside the structure to induce a specific cell reaction. Alg/Hap scaffolds
were coated with chitlac-RGD and chitlac-nAg; on those, biological and antimicrobial in vivo tests
were performed. For both scaffolds we observed good cytocompatibility and, in the case of
scaffold with RGD, an improved cell proliferation; moreover, the scaffold with nAg showed a high
level of antimicrobial activity.
The aims for the next year activity will be the in vivo tests on the bioactive scaffolds obtained, to
investigate both their integration and antimicrobial properties.

Title of the thesis: Development of microfluidic devices for biomedical applications of
Synchrotron Radiation Fourier Transform Infrared Microspectroscopy
Supervisor: Prof. Alfonso Franciosi
Tutors: Dott.ssa Lisa Vaccari – Dott. Luca Businaro
Research Activity
This PhD project focuses on the development of microfluidic devices transparent to both visible and
mid-infrared (MIR) light, in order to study the biochemical response of living cells to diverse
stimuli, by exploiting capabilities of FTIR microspectroscopy (μ-FTIR) with synchrotron radiation
(SR).
During this second year, the manufactured 2D prototypes designed, fabricated and tested during the
first year of the PhD, have been used to investigate the biochemical response of leucocytes to both
mechanical and /or chemical stimuli. Living cells belonging to two different cell lines (THP1 and
U937) have been measured in vitro in diverse conditions: in resting state, undergoing purely
mechanical deformation, subjected only to chemical activation (activating agents: fMLP -formylMethionyl - leucyl-Phenylalanine- and PMA -Phorbol-12-Myristate-13-acetate-), and combaining
the two sources of stimulation.
Contemporary, we further optimized the fabrication processes for producing a three- dimensional
microfluidic device and the engineering of a home-made thermalized sample holder with
connections for syringe pumps.
The new prototype will be used during the beamtime scheduled for 14-19 December 2009 at he
infrared beamline of Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste (SISSI). Primary human leukocytes (monocytes and
lymphocytes) will be measured trying to validate the data collected so far using cells belonging to
the same cellular phase (synchronized cells).
Objectives for the following year
o Move from static experiments to dynamic ones by using 3D microfluidic devices
transparent both to MIR and visible.
o Measure primary cells instead of immortalized ones.
o Optimize algorithms for the water subtraction and for the correction of spectral
artefacts due to Mie scattering phenomena in order to improve data analysis

Title of the thesis: Nanoscale interaction for higher efficiency of contrast media
Supervisor: Prof. Attilio Cesàro
Tutor: Dr. Nicola D’Amelio
Research Activity
In this study we investigate the nanoscale interactions in solution of iodurated contrast media of
oversaturated solutions to control and to tune the aggregation phenomenon. During this year NMR
spectroscopy was mainly used. Experiments were carried out to evaluate the size and mobility of
aggregates from diffusion and relaxation time. The ratio T1/T2 gives information about local and
global mobility to identify the moieties involved in intermolecular interactions. Chemical shift
deviations as a function of concentration confirms the molecular regions involved in interactions.
Few molecules seem to be involved into a nanostructurated aggregate. Aggregations seems to
involve mainly lateral chain of the ICM. To check hydrogen bonds in solution from amidic protons
chemical shift deviation data were carried out as a function of temperature, but stable hydrogen
bonds were not revealed.
In addition, ICM solutions were studied by raman spectroscopy in function of concentration at
constant temperature in university of Perugia. Changes in conformation were not revealed.
However, an anomalous peak was observed at low frequencies (20 cm-1) for iomeprol, iopamidol
and iopromide. This could be due to rotation around single bond between aromatic system and
carbonilic groups.
The objective is to identify all the accessible conformations in solutions by using 1H and 13C
spectra of simple molecules of ioduinated contrast media; the aim is to know the percentages of
atropisomers in solutiona at high concentrations to control aggregation phenomenon. Other
techniques in solution (scattering Raman) and on the solid state (calorimetry) will be
complementary used. The final aim is to understand and to tune the phenomenon of the
atropisomerism that is responsible of nanostructurated aggregates in solutions.

Title of the thesis: Analysis of stability of bonded interfaces in dentistry: the role of MMps and
low contraction materials.
Supervisor: Prof. Lorenzo Breschi
Tutors: Prof.ssa Milena Cadenaro
Research Activity
Despite excellent immediate and short-term bonding effectiveness of dental adhesives, the
durability and stability of resin bonded interfaces on dentin created by some bonding systems
remains questionable. The research activity of the present year investigated various factors involved
in the failure of bonded interfaces:
1.insufficient impregnation of the dentin substrate;
2.increased permeability of hybrid layer;
3.degradation of dentinal collagen fibrils due to endogenous dentin MMPs.
These phenomena are influenced by the elastic modulus of the adhesive system, thus the percentage
of residual ethanol on E-modulus of experimental adhesive blends was investigated. The results of
this study showed that resin blends with 10% 20% residual ethanol produced a significant reduction
in the E-modulus after 24h water storage.
Another experimental protocol investigated bond strength and stability of the adhesive interface of
different self adhesive cements used to lute fiber posts within intraradicular dentin after storage in
artificial saliva for 1 year. The value of the different self adhesive cements never exceeded 10 MPa
of bond strength and degradation of the adhesive interface between dentin and cements was
investigated. Since previous studies demonstrated a protective role of chlorexidine in inhibiting the
bond degradation induced by MMPs, an experiment was carried out to test the influence of 2%
digluconate chlorexidine as additional primer during the luting procedure with self adhesive on
fiber posts. The results have shown no differences between experimental groups and control groups
at 6 months. For the final result we are looking forward to investigate the 1yr specimens currently
ongoing.
A research protocol an experiment to evaluate the release of chlorexidine from dentin bonding
systems after mechanical cycling will be performated. Resin disks with known composition of
monomer (at increasing hydrophilicity) containing chlorhexidine in different concentrations were
polymerized, and analyzed it with spectroscopy after cyclic loading. Since the peak of release of
CHX is overlapped by the peak of methacrylate resin we are currently looking for a new method to
investigate the content of the eluates (HPLC) .

Title of the thesis: Polysaccharide based nanoparticles for drug delivery
Supervisor: Prof. Cesàro Attilio
Tutors (if any): Dr. Borgogna Massimiliano, Dr. Bellich Barbara
Research Activity
During my PhD period the purpose is to develop and characterize biodegradable polymeric
nanoparticles as drug carriers as well as to promote the rational and optimal design and
development of novel carrier systems. More specifically, at the end of my project likely I will be
able to design original nanocarriers and to have fully characterized the systems in order to tailor
specific properties. This includes the tuning the molecular interactions in the polymer assemblies at
nanoscale level.
During my second year, the production of chitosan carriers based on ionotropic nano-hydrogels
formation induced by tri-(poly)-phosphate (TPP) has been optimized. We focused our attention on
several aspects, such as physical-chemical properties, yield, storage, production automatization, etc.
To optimize chitosan properties and solve pharmaceutical-technological problems we used two
different classes of molecularly engineered chitosan derivatives: a trimethylated chitosan and
glycosil-based derivatives.
In order to investigate drug loading capacity different model drugs has been used: OVA, BSA,
Human Insulin, Bovine Insulin.
We investigated the association of Chitosan carriers with other biopolymers: Alginate and different
Pectins. Two different methods have been used: nanoparticle coating and polyelectrolyte
complexation.
Finally, a collaboration has been started with the University of Innsbruck for the mucoadhesivity
study and with the University of Bremen for the a deep investigation of the dimensional properties
of our polymers as a function of the chemical derivatization.
The aims of my third PhD year are:
 To introduce different engineered chitosan derivatives
 To optimize nanocarrier coating using different biopolymers: alginate and pectin
 To investigate nanoparticle formation using the polyelectrolyte complexation
 To focus our attention on human insulin encapsulation and characterization of loaded
carriers (drug release, protection effect, etc.)
 To extend the investigation about drug loading using different types of model
peptide/protein drugs
 In vivo ed ex vivo studies
 Characterization of produced systems ( nanometric resolution spectroscopies, physicochemical properties, ect.)

Title of the thesis: Correlation between structure and reactivity for nanostructured catalysts
Supervisor: prof. Renzo Rosei
Tutors (if any):
Research Activity
The aim of this thesis is to highlight correlations between the activity of nanostructured catalysts
and their structural and compositional characteristics.
Catalytic properties in metallic alloys are often related to those of their components in a
nonintuitive way.Several catalyst parameters (not only the geometrical ones) seem to modulate
reactivity. Determining if and how these effects compete or act together is the objective.
Preliminary DFT calculations on several bimetallic alloys, made by members of our group, suggest
what are the best candidates as catalysts for selected reactions (WGS, PROX).
After a check of real samples‟ activity, their careful structural characterization is required.
I dedicated the first two years of my studies how to learning how to analyse data collected with
EXAFS spectroscopy and TEM, and now I‟m involved with the MCX beamline (Elettra - powder
diffraction) in characterizing nanostructured catalyst samples produced in the framework of an
international collaboration. This beamline is equipped with an oven to bring the samples to 1200C,
to observe structural changes related to temperature variations. The last months we have been
occupied in tweaking and interfacing it with the data analysis system (Labview). Both the oven and
the data acquisition system are currently operating. During a recently concluded experimental
session we have analyzed catalysts samples that have been already subjected to Electron
Microscopy, to identify structural variations that can appear in inert atmosphere as a consequence of
the annealing process. The data analysis will be concluded in a short time.
Several problems that arose during measurements highlighted modifications that must be
implemented in the oven and in the samples. Most of them are related to the labor intensive
alignment phase. Moreover, the first results seem to suggest that it‟s necessary to complement the
XRD technique with EXAFS. Concerning the samples, it may be necessary to change the sample
support (alumina) to a new one that doesn‟t obscure NC‟s signal.
In the next months it will be possible to make new measurements at the MCX beamline with the
oven and a reactor to test the samples while a PROX reaction goes on. The possibility to make RT
measurements with the high resolution diffractomenter will also be evaluated.

Title of the thesis: Influence of nanostructure on the electronic properties of heterojunctions
in photovoltaic cells.
Supervisor: Prof. Alberto Morgante
Tutors (if any): Dott. Massimo Tormen
Research Activity
Photovoltaic solar cells based on organic materials show an high absorption of light and conversion
to electric charges, however, thay have scarce properties of transport the photo-generated charges.
Thus, the study of innovative conctacts‟ geometries has been developed to better explicate the great
potential of this kind of cells. In particular we want to realize a layout in which the ligth and current
path are orthogonal to each other. For this purpose, in this year the research activity has been
pointed to the project and assembling of a suitable high vacuum system for the evaporation of both
metals and organics at variable incidence angles. Moreover, this system has to be coupled to a glove
box in inert atmosphere in order to perform more processes avoiding contaminations and
degradations od materials.
In the meantime, the X-ray lithographic technique has been studied at the synchrotron beamline
LILit1 getting, by writing a computational code for the optics simulation, to the comprehension of
this high resolution exposition system. This technique will be used to fabricate substrates for the
cells mentioned above.
In former studies, light trapping devices based on microlenses were developed. Thus, a deposition
protocol for transparent conductive electrodes has been optimized in order to enhance the
applications of this system.
In conclusion, we succeded in appling for a beamtime on ALOISA 2 beamline in order to carry on
some more experiment on charge transfer in organic systems for photovoltaic.
o Fabrication of photovoltaic cells with a nano-series interconnection;
o Charge transfer experiments in organic compounds for photovoltaics;
o Electronic characterization system for organic semiconductors (Tutor for a master student).

Title of the thesis: Rare-earths oxides-based nanostructures as heterogeneous catalysts
Tutors (if any): Dr. Tiziano Montini
Research Activity
The research activity mainly consisted in the development of an approach to obtain stable
materials for heterogeneous catalytic reactions. The methodology is based on the encapsulation of
preformed metal nanoparticles inside porous oxides in order to limit the sintering of the metal phase
under reaction conditions and therefore to avoid the deactivation of the catalysts.
We initially focused our attention to Au, Pd and Cu embedded inside ceria (CeO2).
1) Au has been encapsulated inside ceria through a supramolecular approach which addresses
the preferential precipitation of Ce(OH)x around pre-formed Au nanoparticles. The materials
obtained showed very good activities for the PReferential OXidation of CO in the presence of
excess H2 (PROX) and remarkable stability after simulated aging treatments. Moreover, the
developed catalysts showed better activities than those obtained with Au/CeO2 materials prepared
through optimized literature methods. The characterization with complimentary techniques such as
X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy, Scanning-Transmission Electron Microscopy and chemisorption
confirmed the formation of small Au nanoparticles protected by a layer of porous oxide.
2) Pd@CeO2-type systems has been realized by self-assembly in solution of the components
(thiolate-protected Pd nanoparticles and Ce alkoxides). The obtained core-shell structures have been
adequately functionalized to make them dispersible in organic solvents; the structures have been
characterized and successfully used as flexible precursors in the preparation of active catalysts for
the Water-Gas Shift-Reaction (WGSR).
3) Cu@CeO2-type catalysts have been prepared using water-in-oil microemulsions. Cu
nanoparticles have been prepared inside the water droplets of the microemulsion and then a cerium
alkoxide has been hydrolyzed to give the final Cu@CeO2 structures. Despite the low Cu loading
(2.5 wt. %), the materials resulted very active for both PROX and WGSR. The stability of the
catalysts is very promising, with no loss of activity under PROX condition even after aging at 550
°C for 12 hours (harsh conditions used to simulate an accelerate aging).
The results are encouraging as they highlight the possibility to use the embedding approach for the
obtainment of highly active and stable catalysts for different reactions and with different metalmetal oxide combinations.
53
The main objectives are the extension of the embedding approach to other metals and metal oxides
combinations and the deep characterization of the materials already prepared.

Research Activity

Overall project objective
This PhD research project is part of a wider project, which aims at developing a high
efficiency, nanostructured multiphase material for photovoltaic applications, characterized
by an electronic intermediate band (IB) located within the semiconductor bandgap. This
kind of material has shown to be feasible by enclosing semiconducor nanocrystals (NCs)
into a wider bandgap semiconductor (host material). This research project aims at realizing
this architecture through self-assembly and densification of heterophasic NCs (“coreshell”), synthesized by potentially low-cost, environmental friendly colloidal chemistry
approaches.

Activities performed during first year
The first year research activity focused initially on laboratory training and on reviewing
the available literature . Therefore, an optimal semiconductors system was chosen in terms
of costs, environmental remarks and optical properties (i.e. bandgap and relative position
of valence bands). Among metal chalcogenides, Cadmium Selenide or Telluride (CdSe or
CdTe) NCs embedded into a Zinc Selenide, Telluride or Sulfide (ZnSe, ZnTe or ZnS)
matrix were evaluated as composite systems. Hence, with respect to practical and
technological limitations, the CdSe and ZnSe NCs synthesis techniques were improved,
selecting favorable precursors/solvent/surfactants, to obtain NCs of the chosen size (and
therefore desired optical properties). Monophasic NCs, ranging from 2 to 6 nanometers
diameter, were successfully obtained. Afterwards, novel CdSe-ZnSe and CdSe-ZnS
heterophasic NCs (“core-shell”) synthesis techniques were developed, obtaining controlled
size , good monodispersed CdSe cores, with an overgrown ZnX (X=Se,S) shell layer with
tunable thickness. NCs solutions have been characterized through absorbance and
photoluminescence spectroscopy, during and after the synthesis; some films, selfassembled from NCs dispersions, have been optically characterized through
photoluminescence spectroscopy, and morphologically through Wide Angle X-ray
Spectroscopy (WAXS). Finally, TEM and HRTEM images were acquired, in order to
evaluate NCs size.

o Improving NC deposition techniques on conductive substrates
o Scouting and improving densification procedures to obtain a completely inorganic
film, with required nanoscopic scale architecture and desired optical properties

ADVANCED MICROSCOPY TECHNIQUES
Supervisore: prof. Alberto Morgante, dott. Dan Cojoc

Research activity
Neurotrophins are a family of proteins that induce the survival, development and function of
neurons. Brain-derived Neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a member of this family and is able
to induce different cellular responses according to the site of stimulation of neurons
(McAllister, Neuron 1995). During this year I developed a system that allows a high spatial
resolution delivery of this protein. This system is based on silica beads (1.5um) manipulated
with optical tweezers and places on the dendrites of hippocampal neurons. I demonstrated
that BDNF is still biologically active when covalently attached to the beads analyzing C-Fos
translocation into the nucleus (Finkbeiner, Neuron 1997) and calcium levels (Berninger,
NeuroReport 1993). We saw that BDNF-coated beads induce C-Fos translocation while
control beads coated with Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) do not. Moreover, using Optical
Tweezers, I stimulated neurons with a BSA-bead, I recorded calcium signal for 10 minutes
and then I placed the second bead on another dendrite. This second bead could be a second
BSA-bead (control experiments) or a BDNF-bead. Signal was then recorded for 50min.
Stimulation of pyramidal neurons with BDNF-beads induced an increase in calcium levels
both in the somas and in the stimulated dendrites and this signal is much higher then the one
obtained with BSA beads.
In this year I developed a new tool for local stimulation of neurons that allows a researcher
to have the experiment and the control on the same cell (really usefull for
electrophysiologists). This technique can be of interest also in the field of molecular
neurobiology in order to analyze the effect of molecules on different part of a same cell.

Goals for the next year
o Setting of sperimental conditions to visualize mRNA and Endoplasmic Reticulum
movements in vivo using fluorescence microscopy
o Development of new vectors that prevent mechanical stimulation of cells
o Building of a an optical tweezers setup coupled to a UV microdissection setup
o Building of a multi-trapping setup

Title of the thesis: Molecular Interaction on Nanoscale in Cancer Therapy
Supervisor: Prof. Tullio Giraldi
Tutors (if any): Dr. Giuseppe Toffoli
Activity
This project aims to analyze the molecular interactions on nanoscale for combination therapy in
cancer patient to optimize therapy. Part of the first period was spent in research and systematic
evaluation of all relevant literature. After it was conducted a bibliographic research on PubMed, and
clinical protocols have been defined. It was also planned procedures for the collection and
processing of biological samples, the construction of databases and the development of analytical
methods.
It was examined two protocols: "First line treatment with exemestane in patients with metastatic
breast cancer" and "Phase I study docetaxel, oxaliplatin, capecitabine (DOC) in untreated patients
affected by gastric cancer". The latter is a phase I study to define the maximum tolerated dose
(MTD) in patients with gastric cancer. It has been evaluate the procedures for analysis and
validation for the exemestane and docetaxel in biological matrices using HPLC-MS/MS (high
performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry). The analytical
methods were validated for specificity, reproducibility, accuracy, linearity, precision, limit of
detection and limit of quantification. The time of analysis for the exemestane and docetaxel was 5.0
and 3.0 minutes respectively. The limit of quantitation for exemestane was 0.19 ng/ml, while for
docetaxel is equal to 0.15 ng/mL. The methods have a range of linearity of 0.19-51.2 ng/mL for the
exemestane, and 0.15-1500 ng/mL for docetaxel with r2≥0998. So far, two complete
pharmacokinetic for the exemestane and eleven for docetaxel have been investigated. Analysis of
pharmacokinetic data showed a slight trend in the docetaxel AUC, however, at present, still limited
number of patients investigated allowed us to observe significant differences. Clinical studies are
still in progress. Investigation will be completed by 2010.
x Continue with the recruitment of patients to determine and assess the MTD of Docetaxel in
patients with gastric cancer and to define the toxicity profile.
x Continue with the enrolment of patients with breast cancer to determine plasma levels of
exemestane on the response and toxicity to treatment
x Development and validation of additional analytical methods for the analysis of
pharmacokinetic interaction in combination therapy used in specific treatment protocols in place
at the CRO of Aviano.

Title of the thesis: Nanotechnological application in pharmacogenetic research
Supervisor: Prof. T. Giraldi
Tutors: Dr G. Toffoli
Research Activity
The primary objective of the research project is to evaluate the possible application of innovative
nanotechnology and methodologies in clinical practice of community medicine. The project is
aimed to evaluate the feasibility of the translation of pharmacogenetics approaches from clinical
trials, necessarily conducted on fewer samples, to current clinical practice of community medicine.
Detailed analysis of the literature indicates that pharmacogenetics of warfarin is relevant for a more
appropriate use of this drug. Warfarin is a widely used oral anticoagulant drug but its use has
problems due to individual variability in response, with the need to adapt dose for each patient.
Such individual variability is due to the presence of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in
genes encoding the enzymes involved in its metabolic inactivation (CYP2C9), and its biological
target, vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKOR), with resistance (persistence of risk of thromboembolic phenomena) or limited response to treatment (bleeding).
The objective of the research project even involve the validation of algorithms of prediction of
warfarin dose based on pharmacogenetic variables (polymorphisms of CYP2C9 and VKORC1).
The pharmacoeconomic aspects will be also considers in this study. From this evaluation may
derive any indication of the possibility of develop advanced nanotechnology devices, also suitable
for use in clinical practice and community medicine.
The first year of PhD was dedicated to the development of the project, through extensive analysis of
the literature, writing the research protocol in collaboration with the clinicians, and the
identification of different methodological and technological approaches. The identified molecular
genetic techniques are Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), followed by analysis of polymorphisms
using technologies such as Pyrosequencing or TaqMan method. The project was then submitted and
approved by Ethical Committee of the Azienda per i Servizi Sanitari di Trieste n.1 (ASS1), because
the study covers patients recruited by the Centro Cardiovascolare and Distretto 1 of ASS1. These
structures have currently begun the enrolment of the patients and the organization of the clinical
records in order to create a database.
In the final part of the first year it is also started the collection of biological samples (blood or oral
mucosal cells), obtained after written informed consent from each patients recruited, for the analysis
of polymorphisms.
Over the next two years, the doctoral project will develop along the following main points:
 Patients enrollment and implementation of the database with the data of their medical
records;
 collection of biological samples;
 DNA extracting and genptyping;
 statistical analysis of the data;
 pharmacoeconomic analysis of the results;
 writing a conclusion and final report.

Title of the thesis: “Ionic channel behavior: development of a novel, non destructive method
for mechanical and electrical analysis of a single cell”
Supervisor: prof. O. Sbaizero
Tutors (if any): Research Activity
The main goal of this doctoral activity is the design and the realization of an experimental technique
able to perform electrical and mechanical analysis of single living cells. In particular our research
will be focused on ion channel activity correlated to mechanical properties. The background idea is
to integrate micro-fabrication techniques (micro electro mechanical devices, MEMS) and an atomic
force microscope (AFM).
During the first year, we focused our research on the design and optimization of commercial
MEMS. We used these devices to analyze single cells, in particular we evaluated the morphological
modifications comparing the ratio between area and perimeter with the number and the type of
stimuli (linear, cyclic, amplitude and velocity of stretch). We also used shape factor to estimate the
healthy degree of each stimulated cell. However, commercial MEMS are non-transparent and
therefore every analysis must be performed with reflective microscopy. To overcome this problem,
I worked (and I am still working) in the nearby CNR-TASC laboratories and a transparent MEMS is
under realization. We designed the masks that we will use during fabrication, we modelled with
finite elements analysis each constitutive element, finally we chose the production techniques
(deposition techniques and etching) and selected the best materials. Thin films, using Plasma
Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition (PECVD), have been already deposited. Each composition
has been tested focusing on transparency, refractive index, impurities, deposition rate and etching
rate.

Title of the thesis: Self-assembling and charge transfer properties of thin organic films
Supervisor: Prof. Alberto Morgante
Tutors (if any):
Research Activity
During the first year of my PhD I had the opportunity to address different research topics mainly
focused on the study of both geometrical assembling and electronic properties of organic-inorganic
interfaces. In parallel I have investigated more traditional systems such as organic thin film on
metal or semiconductor substrates, and I began the study of systems such as the most innovative
devices built from individual molecules.
This allowed the use of different experimental techniques: spectroscopy (XPS, NEXAFS, ResPES),
diffraction (HASPES, PED, LEED) and microscopy (STM) for the traditional systems, while
conductivity measurements (STM break-junction method) for the study of the electronic properties
of single molecule devices.
So far the most significant results were achieved in the analysis of the ordering properties of C60
and pentacene thin films on TiO2 (in its semiconductor phase). Information concerning the
electronic properties and possible charge transfer are being finalized.
As part of research conducted in the field of single molecule electronics, numerous experiments
have been conducted in order to deepen the study of junctions Au/benzenediamine/Au in different
conditions (UHV and low temperature) than those reported in the literature (in air and room
temperature).
The plain is to investigate on the missing information on the electronic properties of the
aforementioned systems (C60 and pentacene/TiO2); to this end a period of measurements
(beamtime) on the ALOISA/HASPES beamline has already been approved and allocated.
Futhermore the next step on the study of the single molecules conduction properties is to move
forward with the support of spectroscopic informations that can be obtained from the same thin
organic films on gold (in this case too we take advantage of the aforementioned beamtime).

“One of the main goals of nanotechnology is the miniaturization of electronic devices through the
exploitation of unique properties of matter at the nanoscale. At present, many efforts have been
made to develop electronic devices in which a molecule between two electrodes plays the role of an
68
active conducting element. Although reliable and reproducible experiments have been reported, a
comprehensive conceptual understanding of electron transport in molecular system is lacking.
In this work, the main results obtained by means of a home-made STM break junction set up will be
presented. In the STM break junction technique an Au scanning microscope tip is repeatedly
crashed in and moved out of an Au surface in the presence of the molecule. As the Au point contact
is streched and finally broken, a molecule can be trapped between the tip and the substrate. It is
then possible to apply a bias to the electrodes and measure the current passing through the
molecule.
The electron tunnelling through the molecular junction is affected by the coupling between the
discrete energy levels in the molecule and the continuum states of the electrodes. To understand this
coupling, the single molecule conductance measurements will be discussed with the support of the
spectroscopic investigations of the same thin organic films on gold. In particular, by means of
Resonant Photoemission Spectroscopy it has been possible to disentangle molecular orbitals and
determine the ones involved in the charge transfer at the surface.”

Title of the thesis: Identification of novel protein scaffolds for binding of small molecules
Supervisor: Prof. Roberto Marzari (University of Trieste)
Tutor: Prof. Daniele Sblattero (University of Eastern Piedmont)
Research Activity
In the literature, there are well known protein structures, named scaffold, used and modified for the
construction of variants able to recognize and bind small molecules. These scaffolds differ in terms
of structures stability, tolerance to multiple substitutions, ease of expression and subsequent
applications.
Protein scaffolds are divided according to the architecture of their bones into three groups: scaffolds
formed by -helix, scaffolds formed mainly by -sheets and small scaffolds with few secondary
structures or irregular architecture of -helices and -sheets. Among the alpha-helices scaffolds
there are the coiled-coil domains: these are composed by two right-handed alpha helices which
dimerize. A research group has synthesized ex-novo a scaffold structure named E/K coiled coil.
In my PhD project this E / K coiled-coil scaffold has been considered to isolate new molecular
interactors on the basis of some characteristics that have been already described. The E / K coiledcoil scaffold consists of two distinct peptides, formed by a single heptad repeated five times. The
sequence of the heptad for the E peptide is E-V-S-A-L-E-K while for the K peptide is K-V-S-A-LK-E (positions g-a-b-c-d-e-f). We decided to make the some changes to the basic structure of the
scaffold E/K in order to create a pocket that can bind various types of small molecules. Mutations
were made to both peptides E and K, in central heptads and leaving the other four heptads as wild
type. The strategy adopted was a random mutagenesis in which all amino acids were mutated in the
all positions of heptads considered. This randomization was obtained using a random design of
primers and subsequent cycles of PCR. A library of 2 * 108 single chain fragments E random / K
random was created. The quality of the library obtained was verified by PCR while the diversity
was validated by sequencing the clones. The sequence shown a good variability of each central
random heptad in all clones analyzed. The library has been selected with phage-display technique
on a range of analytes of our interest for the identification of novel protein scaffolds that are able to
bind these small molecules.
For the future we will carry out a biochemical characterization of the clones selected against the
analytes chosen. In particular we will study the affinity, the stability, the folding, the constants of
association / dissociation, the chemical and physical characteristics (such as circular dichroism
spectra) and the three-dimensional structure of interacting partners for future applications in the
field biosensor as a new molecular scaffold.

Supervisor: Giuseppe Firrao
Tutors (if any):

Research Activity
In this year I carried out the preliminary work for the development of the biosensing layer of a
novel hybrid nanosensor comprising a nanopore and complex nucleic acid structure. For this
purpose two methods were applied for the construction of an effective sensitive layer: the
Hybridization Chain Reaction to obtain DNA long polymers labelled with fluorescent (FITC) or
Electrochemiluminescent (Ruthenium) moieties, and the new approach of two dimensional DNA
origami. The first approach resulted highly reproducible in vitro under controlled temperature, and
the visualization of the polymers was very simple (both in the case of modified and not modified
polymers) by gel electrophoresis, by epifluorescence microscopy or ECL detection. The
implementation of the DNA origami approach required an extensive preliminary design phase, that
was performed by dedicated software packages (SARSE v.1.38/DNA origami package v.1.10,
NanoEngineer-1 ™ v.1.1.1 and caDNAno v.0.2 .3). These programmes were evaluated for their
advantages and disadvantages, and I managed to obtain a reliable final model only with the use of
the software caDNAno. The designed structure consists of 218 oligonucleotides for each strand of
M13mp18 present in solution and I am currently proceeding with the in vitro validation of the
computer model. In the same time the mechanism of switching of the DNA origami was
investigated. This change of conformation is based on the hybridization events occurring between a
single stranded DNA (linked to the sensitive layer) and a target molecule of diagnostic interest. In
the case of the detection of molecules of biological interest such as mycotoxins, the protocol has
been finalized to the development of a DNA aptamer specific for Zearalenone, adjusting a previous
reported SELEX protocol. The didactic activities of this year included university courses at the
universities of Trieste and Udine, workshops organized by the Graduate School in nanotechnology
and others, advanced courses followed at ELETTRA and a summer school at the University of
Karlsruhe.

Titolo della tesi: The effect of nanotopography on cell differentiation: an alternative way
to guide embryonic stem cells into neurons.
Supervisore: Marco Lazzarino
Tutori (eventuali): Elisabetta Ruaro
Research Activity
Description of the research activity and the main results obtained:
The aim of my Phd project is to develop nanopatterned substrates which can stimulate, control and
direct the Embryonic Stem (ES) Cells differentiation into neurons.
My activity is divided in 3 technological different fields : 1- micro and nano fabrication to obtain
nanopatterned substrates, 2-Embryonic Stem Cells colture and differentiation into neurons, 3development of imaging techniques and methodologies for cell analysis in physiological conditions
with nanometrical resolution .
I fabricate several PDMS substrates for cells colture using Soft Lithography. These substrates have
simple 2D geometry (lines, pillars, circle) , periodicity between 180 nm and 800 nm and depth
between 100-500 nm.
PDMS replica obtained were analyzed using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic
Force Microscopy (AFM) on air and in liquid.
I differentiate Embryonic Stem cells into neurons using a stromal cell-derived inducing activity
(SDIA) protocol. Neuronal precursors were plated on glass coverslips and on glass coverslips
coated with PDMS because a first important result was the significant increase of cells vitality
observed on PDMS substrates. Moreover preliminary results show that the yield of differentiation
increase on nanopillars 250 nm wide and 200-400 nm deep.
To observe the cell-substrate interaction with micrometrical resolution I developed an imaging
methodology using AFM (in liquid). Neurons after 24 hours of differentiation were fixed and then
imaged with AFM in liquid.
An important goal reached this year was to find the ideal condition to perform AFM live imaging of
neurons on flat glass. Neuronal growth cones movements were observed for a couple of hours and
their growth and retraction were imaged. That result might be a perfect tool to study cell-substrate
interaction at nanometrical level.
1- Fabrication of different patterns, with different aspect ratio, varying their period, depth and
mechanical properties. Fabrication of disordered patterns with the same dimension of the
previous ones. The patterns which induce a cellular response will be transfer on a Silicon
Nitride substrate.
2- Increase the yield of differentiation and the reproducibility of ES-derived neuronal colture.
Verify with a bigger statistical analysis the effect of the nanopatterned substrate (PDMS
pillars with a period of 250 nm) on the neuronal differentiation using immunofluorescence
essay and fluorescence Microscope. Gene expression analysis of ES-derived neurons grown
on nanopatterns.
75
3- AFM on a bigger number of neuronal growth cones on nanopatterns in liquid after fixation,
to analyze the effect of the pattern on the GC‟s morphology. AFM of live neurons pleated
on PDMS flat and patterned to observe the interaction between neurons and substrates. AFM
to study adhesion forces, in particular, relatively to a single focal point.

Title of the thesis: Advanced MEMS Resonators for High Sensitivity Molecular Detection
Supervisor: Marco Lazzarino
Tutors (if any): Research Activity
The goal of this project is to fabricate a mechanical mass sensor with a very high sensitivity down
to a few molecules.
A new geometry consisting in three-coupled microcantilevers simulated by finite element analysis
method to find the different resonance frequency modes and to see any correspondence between the
experiment and the simulation.
In this way, we can have a good estimation of the resonance frequency before fabricating the
device. The most interesting mode is the anti-symmetric one where the middle cantilever is not
moving. In principle, the added mass breaks the symmetry of the three-coupled microcantilevers,
which triggers the onset of nonzero vibration amplitude of the middle cantilever. The results of the
simulations show clearly that placing an additional mass on one of the two outer microcantilevers
will trigger the middle one to oscillate. Further, simulations on displacement amplitude show that
there is always present of transversal vibration.
The same geometry has been fabricated in the cleanroom at TASC by photolithography technique,
reactive ion etching, and wet etching processes. Scanning electron microscopy has been used to
characterize and to optimize fabrication processes.
The resonance modes are generated in vacuum by a piezoelectric actuator which oscillate the entire
chip or by a frequency-modulated laser in a custom built setup which is focused on individual
devices. The measurements showed that laser actuation method results in narrower mode peaks
since local actuation does not excite spurious modes which are instead observed by piezoelectric
actuation. The setup also allows to rotate the photodetector in order to measure the oscillation of the
cantilevers both along transverse and longitudinal axes. The results of the experiment show that
there is angle dependence of the cantilevers in both actuation methods.
-Fabricate a number of devices with different designs and dimensions

Research Activity
In the first phase of the first year of activity the technical background on PCM has been provided
through a detailed literature review. Later, some Matlab numerical models have been developed
(using Enthalpy method) for modelling the phase change (liquid/solid and vice versa) and the
models have been tested on 1-D and 2-D geometries. Two kinds of discretizations have been used:
Finite Differences Method and Finite Volume Method.
A cylindrical heat exchanger that involves PCM has been projected and an improvement of thermal
performances has been noticed by using a macro-doped mixture called CENG-PCM. With the aim
of making the latent heat exchanger more suitable for commercial uses and more modular, a new
topologic solution has been investigated: the panel model. The “energetic” design has been done for
the unity of the system (the panel). It has been noticed that, the path of the water pipe has a very
important role in the efficiency of the device and the topological CFD optimization has started (now
running).
In the last phase of the year activity, the effect of nano-doping in PCM (paraffin wax) has been
investigated. Carbon Nano Tubes (Single Walled, diameter 1.3nm) has been selected as good
doping material and a DSC analysis has been brought to highlight the alteration of latent heat:
several mixtures have been tested (e.g. 0.1%-0.2%-0.5%...till 2%) and alteration (till 7%) on the
latent heat have been noticed, in agreement with results of Shadab et al. in Journal of Applied
Physics 103.
In the next year:
 finish CFD optimization for panel latent heat exchanger (CENG-PCM);
 define a database of thermo-physical properties of PCMs (nano)doped
 design a new heat exchanger that implies nano-doped-PCM
Once defined the best doped PCM, the energetic design/optimization of the prototype will be done.

Titolo della tesi: Cell mobility and metastatic spreading: a study on human neoplastic cells
using Optical Tweezer
Supervisore: Dott.ssa Serena Bonin
Tutore: Dott. Dan Cojoc, Prof. Giorgio Stanta
Research activity
The pourpose of this project is a systematic in vitro analysis of the mechanical properties
of different human cell lines from different types of solid tumors, characterized by different
metastatic potential and differentiation levels. In particular we are going to study cell
membrane viscoelasticity and local adesion. A direct correlation exists between an increase
in deformability and progression of the transformed phenotype from a nontumorigenic cell
line into a tumorigenic, metastatic cell line. Mechanisms that generate forces for cell
migration have been qualitatively described, but nowadays there are no systematic studies of
quantitative viscoelastic measurements on human tumor cells. Our research will focus on the
characterization of the increased cellular motility in the malignant cells during the metastatic
process and on the role of biomechanics in the tumor growth.
During the first year a custom optical tweezers setup, enforced with a Lateral Shearing
Interferometer Microscope has been designed and realized. Optical Tweezers will be used
to trap and move functionalized 1,5 μm silica beads on the top of the cell. The cell will be
displaced with a nano-piezoelectric stage to induce tension/compression with controlled
strain. Lateral Shearing Interferometry is a technique which permits to measure at the
nanometric level phase gradients in axial direction. In this way it‟s possible to measure
deformations and movements of the objects with very high precision. We will use this
technique for viscoelastic measurements from the thermal fluctuations of the cell membrane.
During this year part of the cell lines on which I will perform the analysis have been chosen,
spread and preserved: in particular cell lines from breast cancer (SKBR, MCF-7, MDAMB
231) and colorectal adenocarcinoma (HT-29, RKO) have been selected. Experiments of
bead functionalization and bead positioning have been done: first, carboxyl groups and type
IV collagen functionalized beads have been tried. Then, in a second time, fibronectin and
other proteins functionalized beads will be tried.

Plans for the next year
During the second year I will perform systematic mechanical analysis on the cell lines:
an elasticity range will be determined for the analyzed cell lines, characterized by different
metastatic potential and differentiation levels. The following tumor models will be analyzed:
skin melanoma, breast carcinoma and colorectal adenocarcinoma. In particular, for each
solid tumor model least 2 different cell lines will be used, i.e. poorly and intermediated/well
differentiated cells.
83
From the same cell lines, membrane and cytoskeletal proteins will be extracted to reveal
possible significative differences at the proteomic level, in order to associate mechanical
analysis results with molecular analysis.
The long term objective is to define possible biomarkers of metastatic diffusion that
could find applications for diagnosis and prognosis of the considered neoplastic lesions.

Title of the thesis: “Nanotechnologies and oncology: pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenomics
to optimize the antitumoral therapies”
Supervisor: prof. Tullio Giraldi
Tutors (if any): dr. Giuseppe Toffoli
Research Activity
This study purpose is to characterize pharmacogenetic markers above all the neurological type
involved in the response and toxicity to the pharmacologic treatment with oxaliplatin in patients
with colorectal cancer. At first literature search has been done to define the genetic polymorphisms
of possible prognostic/predictive significance. Polymorphisms of glutathione S-transferase (GST)
has been identified, transmembrane transporters (ATP-Binding Cassette) that are responsible for the
extrusion of the drug from the cell, and polymorphisms concerning DNA repair genes that codify
for proteins involved in the repair of the damage exerted on nucleic acid from mutagens as
alkylating drugs.
154 patients were enrolled with colorectal cancer (CCR) treated with adjuvant FOLFOX-4 from the
National Cancer Institute of Aviano (CRO) and other centres of Veneto region. At first genomic
DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples and then the development of analytical methods
was performed. Specifically an innovative use of nanotechnologies in gene sequencing has been
implemented, such as Pyrosequencing, a technique of recent development, that allows to identify
simply and quickly mutations of punctiform type (SNP). Finally statistical analysis of data was
performed to evaluate the relative risk (OR) of developing colorectal cancer by means of casecontrol studies and the role of individual gene variations in making prone the patient to the
development of toxic reactions after chemotherapy with oxaliplatin.
 Study of pharmacoradiogenetic variations in the toxicity and response to chemoradiotherapy in
prostate cancer patients;
 Determine the impact of these polymorphisms in patients with prostate cancer compared with
the general population in order to determine the possible role on carcinogenesis of the prostate
cancer.

Titolo della tesi: Sintesi di nanostrutture di semiconduttori e loro studio mediante luce di
sincrotrone.
Supervisore: dr. Silvia Rubini
Attività di ricerca prevista
Stato dell’arte e motivazioni
I nanofili di materiali semiconduttori sono considerati nanostrutture molto promettenti per futuri
sviluppi nanotecnologici nel campo della sensoristica, della conversione fotovoltaica e potrebbero
trovare applicazioni nella miniaturizzazione dei dispositivi in microelettronica. In alcune di tali
applicazioni si sfrutta l‟alto rapporto superficie / volume dei nanofili, mentre in altre si utilizza su
scala nanometrica la loro natura di semiconduttori.
L‟uso di nanofili semiconduttori per gli scopi citati necessita di una profonda conoscenza delle loro
caratteristiche elettroniche e cristalline, e di un accurato controllo di esse in fase di crescita. In
questo quadro di riferimento si inserisce la ricerca da svolgersi durante questo dottorato.
Molti metodi sono stati proposti in letteratura per indurre la crescita di nanofili. La maggior parte di
tali metodi utilizza la pre-deposizione di un catalizzatore [1](e.g, Au od altri metalli) sul substrato o
processi litografici [2] per modificare il substrato in modo da creare una serie di centri di
nucleazione discreti. La possibile incorporazione di atomi di catalizzatore nei nanofili o la creazione
di difetti durante i processi litografici sono tuttavia potenziali problemi che abbassano la qualità
globale delle nanostrutture e ne minano l‟impiego in campo tecnologico.
Le proprietà dei nanofili dipendono strettamente dalla tecnica utilizzata per la loro sintesi, pertanto
uno studio capillare dei processi di crescita e delle relazioni tra essi e le proprietà dei nanofili
costituisce premessa fondamentale per l‟utilizzo delle nanostrutture in dispositivi.
Le tecniche di caratterizzazione basate sulla luce di sincrotrone possono fornire informazioni
importanti sulla struttura cristallina dei nanofili, la loro struttura elettronica, l‟incorporazione di
drogante o impurezze la loro reattività superficiale anche con elevata risoluzione spaziale [3], e
possono quindi dare contributi significativi alla comprensione delle proprietà delle nanostrutture e
indirizzare il disegno di dispositivi innovativi.

Obbiettivi da raggiungere nei tre anni
oComprensione delle relazioni esistenti tra condizioni di crescita e proprietà dei nanofili.
oAffinamento del controllo delle condizioni di crescita per ottenere la maggiore flessibilità
possibile nelle proprietà dei nanofili.
oSviluppo di prototipi di dispositivi impieganti i nanofili sintetizzati.
Obbiettivi da raggiungere per il primo anno
oAffinamento della tecnica di crescita senza catalizzatore e comprensione dei meccanismi di
crescita coinvolti. Comprensione della dipendenza delle proprietà dei nanofili prodotti dal
substrato impiegato e dalle condizioni di crescita (pressione dei materiali costituenti,
temperatura di crescita) nel caso di crescita senza catalizzatore.
oValutazione della possibilità di utilizzo della stessa tecnica per la crescita di nanofili di materiali
diversi dal GaAs.
oConoscenza approfondita delle tecniche di indagine che utilizzano la luce di sincrotrone e delle
loro potenzialità per l‟analisi di nanofili semiconduttori.
Progetto di ricerca
Sintesi di nanofili.
Dopo aver messo a punto un‟innovativa tecnica per la sintesi di nanofili di GaAs tramite epitassia
da fasci molecolari (MBE) senza l‟utilizzo di catalizzatore, durante il dottorato si valuterà la
possibilità di applicare questa stessa tecnica a nanofili di altro materiale. I nanofili così prodotti
potranno essere confrontati con quelli cresciuti utilizzando catalizzatore metallico (Mn, Au, Fe, …).
Un interesse particolare sarà rivolto alla possibilità di incorporare in maniera controllata impurezze
(droganti) per modificare le proprietà elettriche delle nano strutture, e alla dipendenza del
drogaggio così ottenuto dal catalizzatore utilizzato.
Altro aspetto importante sarà la realizzazione di nanofili composti da regioni di materiali diversi
(etero strutture), o con proprietà elettriche diverse (p.es. giunzioni p-n).
Caratterizzazione dei nanofili - metodi di laboratorio.
La morfologia dei nanofili sarà studiata in maniera sistematica tramite microscopia elettronica a
scansione (SEM), le loro proprietà strutturali tramite microscopia elettronica in trasmissione (TEM)
90
grazia alla collaborazione con il dott. V. Grillo (IN –CNR, Modena) e spettroscopia Raman e microRaman, e le loro proprietà ottiche tramite spettroscopia di fotoluminescenza (PL) anche risolta
spazialmente (micro-PL).
Verranno realizzate misure di trasporto elettrico atte a misurare la conducibilità delle nanostrutture,
drogate e non e valutare la densità di portatori di carica.
Caratterizzazione dei nanofili - luce di sincrotrone.
L‟attività di caratterizzazione delle nanostrutture con luce di sincrotrone comprenderà turni di
misura su linee di luce che utilizzano sia tecniche di microscopia che di spettroscopia e di
diffrazione. L‟interesse sarà posto sulla struttura cristallina delle nano strutture (diffrazione),
l‟incorporazione e la determinazione della configurazione atomica locale di droganti o impurezze
provenienti dal catalizzatore (EXAFS) , la reattività superficiale dei nanofili (fotoemissione) in
relazione alle loro proprietà di trasporto in vista di possibili applicazioni come sensori.
Gli esperimenti verranno realizzati in maniera più consistente a partire dal secondo anno, ed il loro
programma sarà determinato nel corso del lavoro, in collaborazione con i responsabili delle linee di
luce.
Nel caso di misure sensibili alla superficie, le nanostrutture cresciute presso il laboratorio TASC
verranno trasferite alle camere di analisi delle beamline di Elettra protette da uno strato di arsenico
che, depositato nella camera di crescita, verrà rimosso termicamente prima delle misure. Questa
tecnica che si è dimostrata molto efficace nell‟impedire l‟esposizione all‟aria delle nanostrutture.

Title of the thesis: Gold nanoparticles as carriers for drug delivery applications.
Supervisor: Prof. Pasquato Lucia
Research Activity foreseen
State of the art and motivations:
Recently gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) protected by organic monolayers were studied in a variety of
science sectors from physics to material science, from medicine to biology.1
Gold nanoparticles have captured researchers „attention because of their peculiar properties, their
high stability compared to other metal nanoparticles, solubility in organic solutions and water, easy
funzionalization and also because of their biological compatibility. Numerous studies have
demonstrated that they are good attractive candidates for delivery of various payloads into their
targets. This payloads could be small drag molecules or large biomolecules, like proteins, DNA,
RNA. These could be covalently conjugated to AuNPs via cleavable linkers, or baunded to AuNPs
through weak interactions conjugation without structural modification of the drag playload.
Prerequisites of drug delivery systems are the efficient release and the improvement of solubility, in
vivo stability and biodistribution of these therapeutic agents. Gold nanoparticles are suitable as drag
delivery systems because of their unique chemical and physical properties:
-the gold core is essentially inert, non-toxic and biocompatible;
-the syntheses is easy and provide monodisperse nanoparticles with core sizes ranging from 1 to
150 nm;
-they have high surface-area-to-volume ratio and as a result an high density of ligands can be
appended for targeting or drug-loading purposes;
-they can be ready funzionalizated with a large variety of ligands that play as linkers for
therapeutic agents or as labels to monitor the NPs fate or as targets for recognition.
In recent years significant efforts have been devoted to the syntheses of monodisperse nanoparticles
with controlled size and passivated with thiols (thiols ligands strongly bind gold due to the soft
character of both Au and S). Brust and Schiffrin2 have introduced the first method for AuNPs
synthesis, published in 1994, allowing a facile synthesis of thermally stable and air-stable AuNPs
with reduced dispersity and controlled size. This method AuCl4- is transferred from water to toluene
using tetraoctylammonium bromide as the phase-transfer reagent and reduced by NaBH4 in the
presence of alkenethiols. The core size of the particles can be varied from 1.5 nm to 6 nm by
varying the thiol-gold stoichiometry, the temperature and the rate of reducent addition. More
recently were introduced new methodologies for the synthesis of AuNPs passivated with an organic
monolayer and soluble in water.3
To enhance the functional versatility of AuNPs, mixed monolayer-protected AuNPs can be
synthesized directly with proper ligands or through post synthetic functionalization. The most
commonly used method for creation of mixed monolayer-protected AuNPs is through use of the
92
place exchange reaction first introduced by Murry.4 In this protocol, external thiols displace the
existing ligands of AuNPs in an equilibrium process.
Drugs linked covalently could be released by the presence of thiols (e.g. gluthatione) into the cell. 5
Rotello developed a nanoparticle-based delivery system featuring glutathione release6. The particles
featured a mixed monolayer composed of cationic ligands (TTMA) and fluorogenic ligands
(HSBDP). The cationic surface of the particle facilitated their penetration through cell membranes
and the release was triggered by intracellular glutathione (GSH). The fluorescence of the Bodipy
moiety of the HSBDP was silent when linked to the particle, but in presence of high concentrations
of GSH, the Bodyp was released and that fluorescence could be detected. Using these particles the
release of the drug related to the concentration of GSH into the cell could be monitorored.
Non-covalent incorporation of drug into AuNPs monolayers provides an alternative delivery
strategy that allows direct use of unmodified drugs. Drug encapsulation with AuNPs relies on the
use of ligands that generate a hydrophobic pocket into the monolayer. Pasquato demonstrated the
encapsulation of radical probes in AuNPs monolayers, using ESR spectroscopy to monitor the
partition of lipophilic probes between a monolayer of AuNPs and bulk water.7 It was demonstrated
also that smaller nanoparticles featuring more strongly radial monolayers favor guest encapsulation.
Another important field is that of perfluorinated amphiphile compounds. They have the
characteristic to be biocompatible and soluble in polar solvents. This aspects could be taken into
account for applications in material science and biomedical field. In fact the use of perfluorinated
amphiphilic compounds may open the way to new biomedical applications, for example in the field
of antioxidant carriers or in the development of multicompartement nanoparticles with the capacity
to store and release active molecules. In recent years in the laboratory in which I‟ll carry out my
research activity has investigated gold nanoparticles protected by a monolayer of perfluorinated
amphiphilic tiolates (HS-F8-PEG) characterized by a perfluorinated portion and a poly(ethylene
glycol) unit, or a mixed monolayer composed of HS-F8-PEG and HS-C8-TEG.9 ESR experiments
on this mixed monolayers suggest the formation of patches in which the hydrophobic probe
interacts preferentially with the perfluorinated portions.10 These are very interesting systems and
they will open the way toward the possibility to conjugated into the NPs two different active
molecules with different characteristics and carry and release them into cells.

Title of the Thesis: Nanostructured Titanium Dioxide Based Materials for Photocatalysis and
Phototelectrocatalysis
Tutors: Claudio Bianchini, Alessandro Lavacchi
State of the Art and Motivations
Titania NTs, are effective support materials for a variety of noble metal-based catalysts. Indeed,
the physical and chemical properties of nanoscaled TiO2 (crystal structure, morphology, surface
area) may increase the dispersion of active materials on the support, resulting in an high active
surface area and, in turn, in an enhanced catalytic activity. In addition, cooperative effects for
platinum catalysts on TiO2 nanotubes have been observed, and attributed to a change of the
electronic properties of dispersed Pt. These findings well justify for the use of Pd and Pt-doped
titania in photochemical devices. All the above, in conjunction with the remarkable stability of TiO2
in both acidic and alkaline solutions, suggest that TiO2 NTs may be excellent candidates as support
materials for engineering metal catalyzed materials for solar production of hydrogen from aqueous
solutions of renewable alcohols. The application of TiO2 NTs as a support for Pd nanoparticles for
the electro-oxidation of alcohols have also been reported
Figure 1: TiO2 Ordered NanoTube Array (ONTA)
Alcohols are easily produced from biomasses and have an enormous potential in the context of the
“green chemistry”. The possibility of their extensive use for the sustainable chemistry depends
critically on the availability of efficient catalysts.
In this project, we plan to use metal TiO2 NTs, to develop chemo-electro-catalytic materials for the
concomitant production of hydrogen and carboxylic acids from aqueous solutions of renewable
alcohols (ethanol, ethylene glycol and glycerol, mostly) and for the use in photo-activated fuel cells.
This research will imply the manufacture of electrodes with improved characteristics, also in terms
95
of efficiency, chemical and mechanical stability. The deposition of noble and non-noble metal
nanoparticles, and their mixtures thereof, onto nanostructured titania is expected to afford highly
innovative, multipurpose chemo-photo-catalysts suitable for the present target.
Development, fundamental and functional characterization of a variety of photocatalysts and
photoelectrocatalyst for the application in photoreforming, photoelectrolysis and photoactivated fuel
cells.
Objective for the first year
Literature analysis for the definition of the state of the art as a basic reference for benchmarking;
definition of the protocols for both the fundamental and functional characterization of the materials
that will be synthesized; selection trough experimental trials of the best synthetic routes for the
titanium nanostructures.
Research project
Activity 1.1: State of the Art
The state of the art for photocatalysts and photoelectrocatalysts will be critically reviewed. The
obtained data will be used to select systems and synthetic strategies.
Task 1.1: Literature Analysis
A perusal of the existing literature will be performed. The main purposes are a clear definition of
the state of the art and the extraction of the most relevant functional data on the existing systems for
the benchmarking.
Task 1.2: Selection of the Systems
The selection of the systems to be investigated will be performed according to the data provided by
the literature examination. Both the materials and the specific reaction will be selected on the basis
the potential scientific and technological impact.
Activity 2: Synthesis of the Titanium Nanostructures
Titanium dioxide will be synthesized by both electrochemical and chemical methods for the
production of both nanotube arrays and nanostructured carbon supported powders.
Task 2.1: Electrochemical Methods
Anodization of titanium metal substrates will be employed for the synthesis of nanotube arrays with
variable nanotube diameter and length. The anodization will be followed by heat treatment in order
to favour the formation of the photoactive phases.
Task 2.2: Chemical Methods
The chemical synthesis of titanium dioxide nanostructured powders both unsupported and carbon
supported will be performed. The possibility of doping the Titania will also be explored by the
adding boron, nitrogen and eventually other transition metal oxides. The carbon supported materials
developed in this task will be employed as anodes for the photoactivated fuel cells.
Activity 3: Catalyst Insertion

The addition of catalyst with proved activity toward the systems selected in the task 1.2 will be
performed via both electrochemical and chemical approaches. This activity will provide the
materials which will be tested in the activity 4.
Task 3.1 Electrochemical Methods
Electrodeposition techniques will be employed for adding metallic nanoparticles to the catalysts
developed in the tasks 2.1 and 2.2. Deposition conditions will be varied to tailor the particle
characteristic e.g. composition, structure and morphology for the best catalytic performances.
Task 3.2 Chemical Methods
Existing “electroless” methods will be adapted to the deposition of nanostructured metals on the
materials developed in the tasks 2.1 and 2.2.
Activity 4: Characterization
The characterization will consist in the investigation of the catalysts basic properties (structure,
morphology, composition, basic electrochemistry) and functional performances.
This activity will conclude the project with a benchmarking of the produced materials with the state
of the art and a summary of the main findings of the three years of work.
Task 4.1: Basic Characterization
The fundamental characterization will consist in the definition of the basic properties of the
materials. The composition, the structure and the morphology will be investigated as well as the
composition. Half cell electrochemistry of the materials designed photoelectrocatalysts will also be
performed.
Task 4.2: Functional Characterization
The functional performances will be evaluated under the operating conditions. The selectivity, the
conversion yield and the energy efficiency will be determined. A special focus will be on the time
stability of the produced catalysts. Functional data will be the basis for the benchmarking which
will be the object of the task 4.3.
Task 4.3: Benchmarking and Conclusion
The data derived from task 4.2 will be used for the benchmarking with the state of the art materials.
A summary of the main research conclusions of the three years of research will be delivered at
month 36.
The educational activity of the first year will mainly consists in the examination of the existing
literature on the ONTA. A special focus will be on the reading of the book “TiO 2 nanotube Arrays:
Synthesis, properties and Applications” by C.A. Grimes and G.K. Mor edited by Springer in 2009.
The activity will be also integrated by the seminars which will be organized by the Istituto per la
Chimica dei Composti OrganoMetallici (ICCOM).

Thesis title: Nanobiotechnologies for Dermatological Applications
Supervisor: Prof. Giorgio Stanta
Tutor: Dr. Serena Bonin
Anticipated research activity
State of the art and motivations
During my PhD period, my purpose is to develop and validate new protocols, pointing to
provide innovative nanotechnological applications in the fields of dermatological diagnosis, with
special concern on skin melanoma.
Malignant melanoma is due to an uncontrolled growth of melanocytes and is the most lethal
form of skin cancer, as it can rapidly spread to the lymph system and internal organs with poor
prognosis. Since surgical treatment is the golden therapy for melanoma, an early diagnosis is vital.
Aim of study:
This project will focus on the nanotechnological applications of tools for dermatological
diagnosis. In particular in the first part of my project I will focus on the search of new biomarkers
for melanoma and for multiple targets imaging I will try to apply to Archive Tissues the technique
of quantum dots.
A second field of interest regards the positive effects of HSPs (Heat shock proteins) on
damaged dermal cells: apoptosis of altered human fibroblasts and cell recovery. Such beneficial
effects could possibly apply either to UV- and chronologically-altered fibroblasts, or to pathological
biostructures including melanoma cells.
Materials and methods:
In the first step of my project I will use tissue microarrays in order to insert on one slide
multiple melanoma clinical specimens. In this first phase I will use mainly Immunohistochemistry
(IHC) to test several biomarkers in a huge amount of clinical specimens.
Later on I will set up the method to transfer quantum dots based imaging to archive tissues.
This part will be subdivided into two steps: the set up of the method using FFPE tissues (FormalinFixed Paraffin Embedded tissues), commonly used for histological diagnosis and the second one
dedicated to the actual application of the technique to the clinical specimens.
Objectives
to be reached in the three years
Application of nanotechnological tools to the dermatological diagnosis.
Objectives to be reached in the first year
During the first year of my PhD project I will focus on the search of new biomarkers for
skin melanoma. To reach this aim I will create a TMA (Tissue Microarray) in order to
analyse a huge amount of clinical samples in one slide. Later, multiple IHC markers will be
studied on this type of arrays in order to select the ones able to diagnose and prognosticate
skin melanomas.
The successive step will be the application of quantum dots technique to archive tissues in
order to obtain multiple imaging.

Title of thesis: Nanotechnology applications in quantitative neuroscience: proteomics
assessment of astrocyte stressing and neuronal plasticity
Supervisors: Prof. GIACINTO SCOLES and Dr. LOREDANA CASALIS (SISSA-ELETTRA
NANO INNOVATION LAB)
Proposed Tutor: Prof. ROBERT ZOREC (University of Ljubljana)
State of the art and motivations
Once overlooked as merely supportive elements in the central nervous system (CNS), glial cells
have come in the last decade to the centre stage of the efforts to understand the workings of the
brain (P.G. Haydon, Nature 2001). Indeed, the traditional concept, built up in the 20th century, that
macroglial cells, particularly astrocyte, are multifunctional housekeeping cells of neurons has
largely been reconsidered: beside maintaining the optimal environment for functioning of neurons,
evidence emerged that astrocytes may be involved in the regulation of synaptogenenis, in direct
modulation of synaptic strength in the CNS, and they may have an important role in the regulation
of brain microcirculation (E. Newman Trends Neurosci. 2003).
Moreover, astrocytes play a pivotal role in pathologic conditions, by influencing neighboring cells:
they are implicated in early and late stages of neurodegeneration, in reactive gliosis after brain or
spinal cord injury and even in experimental brain infarction (U. Wilhelmsson et al. J Neurosci.
2004). Nowadays astrocytes are known to release chemical messengers, neurotrophins, eicosanoids
and neuropeptides; they also integrate inputs and have long-range signaling systems that can lead to
release of neurotransmitters at a distance and in turn affect the physiological status of neurons;
nevertheless the underlying mechanism of secretion are still under debate (M. Kreft et al. Ann. N.Y.
Acad. Sci. 2009).
The breakthrough discoveries that showed how astrocytes are dinamic and participate in the crosstalk between glia and neurons came as a result of a series of technical advances: studies in cell
cultures first and brain slice later, fluorescent indicators, patch-clamp recording, microscopy and
finally quantitative imaging techniques. The current limit of knowledge advancement is related to
the high sensitivity required to accurately monitor protein-protein interaction to follow changes in
100
cellular pathways due to different kinds of external perturbations. This need is so acute and specific
that the field of protein interactions on a genome wide scale has acquired the name of
Interactomics.
The advent of nanotechnology held the promise to overcome these limitations with the possibility of
measuring protein amounts, in samples consisting of single or few cells, down to a hundred
molecules and sub-nanomolar concentrations and in nano-liter to pico-liter volumes. Therefore
strong advancements in this field of neuroscience are expected and surely will come from the
assessment at a nanolevel of the glial proteomics under experimental condition of stress induced by
external stimuli.
The main goal of this PhD thesis is to explore the astrocyte behaviour under influence of external
stimuli via innovative devices and protocols based on micro/nano-fluidics. This nano-quantitative
approach will eventually enable precise, high throughput and low cost measurements on large,
predetermined diagnostically relevant, subsets of the proteome obtained from very small samples
(down to the single cell level) with potential capability of interactomic analysis.
Accordingly the objectives of the project may be highlighted as follows:
 acquisition of the fundamentals basis for the preparation and the study of astrocytes and
their behaviour in physiologic and pathologic conditions;
 acquisition of the skills needed for the development of a research project;
 acquisition of a broad knowledge in the assessment at a nanolevel of synaptic processes and
neuronal plasticity.
Studying the nano-mechanical response of bio-molecular nano-structures, such as stressed
astrocytes, needs as a first task the realization of a nano-chip device.
Along the first year the main objectives to pursue are:
 introduction to nano-fluidics measurments (to be achieved by personal study and tutorials);
 extensive review of the current knowledge concerning astrocyte‟s exocytosis mechanisms
(to be achieved by personal study and internship at the Ist. of Pathophysiology, Univ of
Ljubiana).
 design a nano-fluidic equivalent of the Wheatstone Bridge (a standard tool for electrical
resistance measurements) to further obtain a quantitative proteome analysis (work to be
carried out at Sincrotrone, Trieste).

Title of the thesis: Development, design and characterization of Metamaterials with negative
refractive index
Supervisor: Filippo Romanato
Tutors (if any):
The neologism “metamaterial” comes from the union of the words “meta”, meaning “beyond”, and
“material”: this term implies, nowadays, a structured composed material that displays properties
usually not found in natural ones [1].
In 1960s Veselago (Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology) [2] first assumed an isotropic
material having simultaneously negative values of electric permittivity (ε) and magnetic
permeability (μ), having, so, negative refractive index (n): it is, then, possible to refer to this kind of
material as Negative Refractive Index Material (NRI) or Double Negative Media. A negative
refractive index implies several effects: the material exhibits negative reflection at the interface,
negative Doppler shift, an obtuse angle for Čerenkov radiation and the possibility of momentum
reversal. Veselago‟s idea remained pure theoretical for more than 30 years, when Smith and
colleagues (University of California, San Diego) [3] designed and fabricated and artificial
effectively homogeneous structure exhibiting simultaneously negative ε and μ, constituted by
standard metals and dielectrics: metal thin-wires (TW) (negative-ε, positive-μ) and metal split-ring
resonators (SRR) (positive-ε, negative-μ). Smith device works as a NRI material in the microwave
range (GHz range).
One of current researchers aim is to design a metamaterial having its operative frequency in THz
range, that is to say at visible wavelength. Though SSR are easy to analyze structures, there are two
main disadvantages designing and fabricating metamaterial using this geometry: it is difficult to
fabricate nano-metric SSR. To face those problems in the last few years a new geometry has been
introduced: a periodic porous nanostructure called fishnet [4]. A fishnet is a three layers structure: a
dielectric layer (usually silicon oxide) placed between two metallic layers (gold or silver).
During the three-years period of PhD fellowship my intention is to study optical metamaterials and
to fabricate nano-porous fishnet using X-ray and interference lithography techniques.

Title of the thesis: Study of carbon nanostructures as carriers for drugs for cancer
chemotherapy.
Supervisor: Prof. Sava
Tutors:Prof. Zorzet,Dott. Pacor,Dott. Daros
The use of carbon nanostructures (NCS), such as fullerenes and nanotubes as the biomedical field is
of great interest, for its possible therapeutic applications and for its use diagnostics.
Potential advantages of these compounds are given by a structure which makes their internalization
by the cells easy and by their large surface area and internal volume, which make them eligible as
drug delivery systems for the transportation of drugs [Leshuai W. Zhang et al, 2009; Prato M. et al,
2008].
Currently, several studies are underway on nanoparticles with different size and purity, with the aim
to collect an overview about their toxicological profile and to shed light on their potential side
effects on biological components, cells, tissues and physiological processes [Boczkowski J. &
Lanone S., 2007].
It is well known that carbon nanotubes are insoluble and have a strong tendency to aggregate and
this is a constraining factor for their use in biological systems, therefore a range of strategies have
been developed to overcome these problems, based on chemical modification of their surface, both
through non-covalent binding of amphiphilic molecules such as polymers or lipids, or through
covalent functionalization of different chemical groups [Tasis D. et al, 2006; Kostarelos K. et al,
2009].
The latter strategy, in particular, offers the possibility to bind steadily, for example, molecules with
therapeutic activity, avoiding the risk of being degraded by serum enzymes or other blood
components.
So far in the preclinical studies performed in vivo, functionalized nanotubes have been proposed as
carriers for anticancer drugs selectively conveying them just to the target cells and controlling their
release [Kostarelos K. et al, 2007].
An innovative strategy that allows the specific internalization of the compound involves the binding
of a target molecule to the surface of the nanotubes, such as a ligand for a receptor membrane
[Shanta Dhar et al, 2008] or a variable sequence of a specific antibody.
Although few works have been published, the results of the first studies in vivo appear to be
encouraging for the use of carbon nanotubes: the administration of such drug delivery systems,
could delay tumor growth with minimal side effects [Bhirde A. A. et al, 2009].

This project, is aimed to get data and knowledge on the mechanisms of the therapeutic activity and
toxicity of carbon nano-structures, in cancer models.
The purpose of the research project is to:
- Study new nanostructures, prepared in collaboration with the group of Professor Prato,
Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Trieste;
- Define the toxicological profile of the nanotube or fullerene used as carriers for drugs, in single
cells in vitro and in whole animals in vivo;
- Analyze the mechanism of up-take and release of the nanostructure loaded with model anticancer
drugs such as doxorubicin and cisplatin;
- Validate their activity in vivo in models of target tumors.
Objectives for the one year
The first part of the study will focus on the therapeutic potential of the test drug loaded to the
nanostructure vs the free drug and on the identification of the biological models for preliminary
experiments in vitro. A number of established cell lines will be expose to different nanostructures,
carrying or not a drug model, in order to select the most appropriate nanostructures in terms of
interaction with the cancer cells.
The objectives to be achieved for the first year are:
- identify the nanostructure most suitable as carrier;
107
-
evaluate any potential selective cytotoxicity on different tumor cell lines;
characterize the sub-cellular pharmacokinetics of the selected nanostructure;
Research project
Outline of the main activities:
-In vitro selection of the nanostructure and of the drug-associated nanostructure.
The test cell lines selected for this studies are those on which adriamycin and cisplatin are mainly
used in the clinical practice. Human cell lines derived from mammary carcinoma and non small cell
lung cancer, including sub-lines resistant respectively to adriamycin and cisplatin will be obtained
from ATCC or similar certificated structure.
The dose and time of cell challenge dependence will be examined in vitro by means of conventional
tests measuring cell viability and apoptosis.
-In vitro analysis of cell and sub-cellular distribution.
The study will be carried out using the cell line in which we showed respectively high and low
response to the selected nanostructure. Conventional methods of preparation of sub-cellular
fractions will be used and will allow to characterize the component(s) of the cell and of the cell
compartment(s) on which the drug associated nanostructures are concentrated.
The combination of the nanostructure plus cisplatin will be studied by means of atomic absorption
spectroscopy where as the combination of the nanostructure with adriamycin will be studied by
means of conventional fluorescent methodologies including flow cytometry.
-In vivo pharmacokinetics and toxicity.
The study of the in vivo pharmacokinetics of the test nanostructures will be carried on in outbred
mice following conventional pharmacological procedures, e.g. intravenous administration and
identification of the whole blood and plasma clearance and of the renal elimination.
Host and organ toxicity will be examined considering the tipical toxicities known for the test drugs
(adriamycin – cisplatin), by administering the drug-nanostructure at doses compatible with their
antitumor activities.
-In vivo characterization of the antitumor potential of the drug nanostructure.
In vivo studies will be performed using target tumors of human origin, obtained from mammary and
lung tumors. The studies will be done using the animal house facility, subject to approval from the
ethical committee and using boxes for immunosuppressed animals.
For the first year, with role of co-rapporteur of some undergraduate students, I will follow them in
the experimental part of their laboratory experience, and I will be working as a tutor during lessons
for high school lab (LLC).

Title of the thesis: “Design and synthesis of functionalized metal nanoparticles for bio-analysis
with Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS)”
Supervisor: Valter Sergo
Tutors: Alois Bonifacio
Tentative Research plan
Raman spectroscopy is a non-destructive technique that gives qualitative and quantitative
information, since the spectrum is a finger print of each molecule, and the intensity of the signal is
proportional to the concentration.
The Raman scattering signal is typically very weak, and enhancement is required to improve the
spatial resolution of the Raman scattering signal. Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) has
been successful in enhancing Raman signals using silver, gold or copper surfaces. Particles
composed of such elements are specifically useful as enhancers of Raman signals, since their
surface plasmons are easily excited by laser light, and generate an electric field that can be
transferred to the adjacent Raman active molecules. This results in an amplification of the Raman
signal.
Due to its advantageous characteristics in terms of selectivity and sensitivity, SERS spectroscopy
has become one of the most incisive analytical methods for chemical and biochemical detection and
analysis [1]. SERS spectroscopy provides structure-specific vibrational spectra of analytes with
extremely high sensitivity, and the high selectivity of the technique is ensured by enhanced
detection of only species adsorbed on noble metal surfaces.
Nanoparticles have found various applications in biomedical research. They are used in drug
delivery, intracellular sensing, diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
For example, a class of biocompatible and nontoxic gold nanoparticles for in vivo tumor targeting
and surface-enhanced Raman detection has been developed [2].
Campbell and colleagues have studied the application of gold nanoshells as a surface- enhanced
Raman platform for intracellular sensing in fibroblast cells by using a near-infrared Raman system
[3] .
Raman nanoparticle probes are used as optical labels for interrogation of physiological and
pathological processes in bioassays, cells, and tissues. Furthermore, their unique emission
signatures are ideal for multiplexing, i.e. simultaneous detection of different chemical species.
Commonly used fluorescent dyes or quantum dots present significant limitations in multiplexing
applications due to the interference from tissue autofluorescence and the overlap of emission peaks.
Nanoparticle probes utilizing SERS emit unique spectral signatures with narrow peaks that are ideal
for multiplexing. Raman emission is normally extremely weak compared to fluorescence, but
enormous signal enhancement scan be created by adsorbing Raman-active molecules onto
nanoparticles [4].

Title of the thesis: Single-molecule heterogeneous catalysis
Supervisor: prof. Giovanni Comelli
Tutors (if any): dr. Carlo Dri
During my PhD I will study model systems for gas-solid heterogeneous catalysis, focusing on how
the single molecules of the reactants interact with the catalyst and between each other during
chemical reactions. My intent is to tackle the study of these systems by means of a complementary
experimental and computational approach.
The word “catalysis” indicates the process where a chemical reaction is sped up or even made
possible by the presence of a substance (the catalyst) that is not consumed into the reaction
outcomes. Catalysis has an enormous technological impact: catalytic processes underlie the
production of more than 60% of all the presently available chemicals on the market such as fuels,
fertilizers and fine chemicals. Catalysts are also employed in production and purification of
hydrogen for fuel cells and in the reduction of pollutants from cars and industrial plants.
In gas-solid heterogeneous catalysis, the catalytic activity stems from the alteration of the chemical
properties of the reactants upon adsorption on the catalyst surface. Surface science is one of the
various approaches adopted for the characterization of such systems, where the latter are simplified
as much as possible in order to investigate the single steps of the reaction at the atomic/molecular
level, from the binding of the reactants to the catalyst, to the dynamics of the reaction itself.
Among the available spectroscopic, microscopic and structural techniques, low-temperature
scanning tunnel microscopy (LT-STM) allows to image, measure and control the properties of
single atoms, molecules and molecular complexes on surfaces, for instance by manipulating the
adsorbates on the surface [2], by identifying the chemical nature of single molecules from their
vibrational spectra (STM-IETS) [3], by characterizing the processes induced by the inelastic
tunnelling of electrons through the molecule (action spectroscopy) [4], measuring the local energydensity of electronic states (LDOS) by means of dI/dV spectroscopy [5]. These unique singlemolecule capabilities are crucial for instance to fully understand systems where the reactivity is due
to the formation of a complex among the reactants on the surface [6], or to determine the adsorption
geometries of a disordered system.
The simulation of the measured properties (STM images, electronic and vibrational spectra) from
the electronic structure of the surface obtained by means of density functional theory (DFT)
computations is a fundamental, complementary technique to the experimental investigation. One
can for instance predict how the various adsorbates will appear on the images, and in principle
identify the chemical species present on the surface by comparing the theoretical and experimental
images, making the STM a sub-molecular probe with chemical sensitivity.

STM measurements will be carried out by means of the commercial Omicron LT-STM available in
the SSR-STM laboratory at TASC.
The groundwork for STM-IETS measurements will start from the measurement of the noise
spectral density of the instrument and the transfer function of the tunnelling current amplifier. With
these information one will try to spot and remove the main sources of noise and to choose optimal
parameters for IETS spectra acquisition.
The data analysis system will be implemented in Igor Pro.

Title of the thesis: Design, Fabrication and Characterization of Plasmonic Nanostructures
for Solar Cells Light Harvesting Enhancement
Supervisor: Filippo Romanato
The research activity is called off in the area of plasmonics, a field of basic and applied research
which studies and exploits the particular properties of the electromagnetic fields generated at the
interface between metals and dielectrics. Light propagating in dielectrics cannot couple to surface
plasmons at flat metallic interface. Nevertheless, nanostructuring metal surfaces to get gratings or
realizing metal nanoparticles, it is possible to excite with ordinary light these electromagnetic
modes confined to surfaces and exploit the resulting near field enhancement.
During the three-year period of PhD fellowship I intend to study the plasmonic approach as a mean
to increase solar cells efficiency and decrease the cost per Watt of energy produced. This is one of
the targets of the European project ORION, to which most of the activities in my plan are related.
Plasmonic nanostructures can offer the possibility of reducing the physical thickness of the
photovoltaic absorber layers needed to convert a significant fraction on the incident photon flux in
free charge carriers. There are two main approaches proposed in literature. Metallic nanoparticles
can be used as subwavelength scattering elements to increase the optical path of the incoming light
inside the absorber, coupling energy to waves propagating horizontally in the device [1][2].
Metallic gratings integrated in the cell structure can couple sunlight into surface plasmon polariton
modes supported at the metal-absorber interface [3][4]. Conventional bulk Silicon solar cells could
benefit from plasmonic nanostructures too: the absorption profile of photons with wavelengths close
to the bandgap, which normally are scarcely absorbed, could be reshaped and enhanced in regions
of the cell with high collection probability for the photogenerated carriers.

Research project
The activities to be carried out can be divided into three work packages: 1) design and
modellization; 2) nanofabrication; 3) characterization.
The designing step includes the definition of possible configurations to integrate plasmonic
nanostructures in solar cells and the study of the properties of the electromagnetic field generated
by the interaction of sunlight with plasmonic gratings. One of the objectives is to realize an electrooptical model of solar cells to evaluate the effect of the integrated nanostructures in cell
performance and to optimize the geometrical and material parameters of the nanostructures. Initially
the behaviour of conventional solar cells, single junction bulk crystalline Silicon cells, will be
simulated. Subsequently thin film cells will be analyzed, for which a higher enhancement of the
performance is expected due to the optical trapping mechanism generated by surface plasmons.
Then solar cells with more complex structures, such as multiple junctions cells, will be studied.
The nanofabrication step has an essential role in the project. The requirements for the lithographic
processes are the capability of realizing structures with feature size of the order of few hundred
nanometers, to obtain gratings which interact with visible and near infrared light, and the
compatibility with industrial mass production processes. It will be necessary to develop additive
(thin film deposition) and subtractive (dry etching) processes to define the structure of the cells and
of the plasmonic gratings. X-Ray lithography will be used to realize test structures and masters for
nanoimprinting lithography. Initially the gratings will be integrated in bulk crystalline Silicon solar
cells provided by partners of the ORION project. Then applications on suitable thin film cells will
be analyzed.
The solar cells with the integrated plasmonic nanostructures will be object of morphological (SEM)
and electro-optical characterization (e.g. I-V curve, quantum efficiency measurements, reflectance).
In case new materials will be tested as absorbers for solar cells, structural and electronic properties,
such as minority carrier lifetime and charge transport properties, could be investigated by
synchrotron radiation experiments.
In the next page the Gantt diagram for first year activities is reported.

9.Criteri di valuatazione delle scuole di dottorato
Si riportano di seguito i criteri di valutazione delle scuole di dottorato utilizzati dal nucleo previa
approvazione degli organi accademici (questi sono i criteri adottati per la valutazione del 2008).
1. INTRODUZIONE E RIFERIMENTI LEGISLATIVI
L‟attività di valutazione dei requisiti di idoneità dei corsi di dottorato di ricerca viene effettuata dal
Nucleo di Valutazione (entrato in carica per il triennio 2006-2009 con DR 102/07 del 23/01/07 e
riconfermato per il triennio 2009-2012 con D.R. 1817/09) in adempimento al disposto di cui al
primo comma dell'art.3 del D.M. 30 aprile 1999, n. 224.I riferimenti legislativi sono i seguenti:
 D.M. 30 aprile 1999 n. 224 “Regolamento in materia di Dottorato di ricerca”, art.3 comma 2;
 Circolare M.I.U.R (Dipartimento per l‟Università, l‟Alta Formazione Artistica, Musicale e
Coreutica e per la Ricerca Scientifica e Tecnologica – Direzione Generale per l‟Università Ufficio IX) prot. 323, dd. 21/02/2006;
 Regolamento in materia di Dottorato di Ricerca dell‟Università degli Studi di Trieste (D.R. n.
908/AG dd. 08/10/99, ultima modifica D.R. n. 1867/2006 dd. 30/10/06);
 Regolamento Generale per le Scuole di Dottorato dell‟Università di Trieste (D.R. n.1188/2006
dd. 14/7/06).
I requisiti di idoneità, in base ai quali sarà condotta la valutazione dei Corsi di Dottorato, sono
quelli previsti dal D.M. 224/99:
a) la presenza nel collegio dei docenti di un congruo numero di professori e ricercatori
dell'area scientifica di riferimento del corso;
b) la disponibilità di adeguate risorse finanziarie e di specifiche strutture operative e
scientifiche per il corso e per l‟attività di studio e di ricerca dei dottorandi;
c) la previsione di un coordinatore responsabile dell‟organizzazione del corso, di un
collegio di docenti e di tutori in numero proporzionato ai dottorandi e con
documentata produzione scientifica nell‟ultimo quinquennio nell‟area di riferimento del
corso;
d) la possibilità di collaborazione con soggetti pubblici o privati, italiani o stranieri, che
consenta ai dottorandi lo svolgimento di esperienze in un contesto di attività lavorative;
e) la previsione di percorsi formativi orientati all'esercizio di attività di ricerca di alta
qualificazione presso università, enti pubblici o soggetti privati;
f) l‟attivazione di sistemi di valutazione relativi alla permanenza dei requisiti di cui al
presente comma, alla rispondenza del corso agli obiettivi formativi di cui all‟articolo 4,
anche in relazione agli sbocchi professionali, al livello di formazione dei dottorandi;
e il requisito aggiuntivo previsto dal regolamento di Ateneo:

la presenza nel Collegio dei docenti (…) di almeno dieci docenti di ruolo presenti in
maniera esclusiva in quel Collegio.
205
Il MIUR (circolare Prot.323, dd. 21/2/2006), “al fine di consentire l‟adozione di criteri omogenei
di valutazione da parte dei Nuclei e di disporre di informazioni in grado di permettere un‟analisi
comparativa dello stato dei dottorati nelle diverse sedi e nei diversi ambiti disciplinari”, ha inviato
ai Nuclei di Valutazione uno schema di valutazione, proposto dal Comitato Nazionale per la
Valutazione del Sistema Universitario, da utilizzare per la verifica dei requisiti di idoneità dei
dottorati di ricerca di ciascuna sede.
Tale schema, confermato anche dalla circolare MIUR n.124 del 2/2/2007, consiste in un
questionario di domande che vanno a definire i requisiti del D.M. 224/99 in modo puntuale e
operativo, individuando alcuni aspetti che i Nuclei devono analizzare per le loro valutazioni.
I Nuclei sono, quindi, chiamati dal Ministero a formulare un giudizio motivato e ad esprimere
una valutazione di merito su ciascun dottorato per ciascuno degli aspetti individuati.
Per quanto riguarda le Scuole di Dottorato, in base all‟art.2, comma 8 del relativo regolamento,
oltre ai requisiti già individuati dal D.M. 224/99, è necessario verificare la sussistenza dei seguenti
ulteriori requisiti:
g) l‟esistenza di un progetto formativo e di ricerca che illustri dettagliatamente gli obiettivi
scientifico-formativi relativamente a tematiche sufficientemente ampie e, ove possibile, a
carattere interdisciplinare;
h) l‟inserimento dei percorsi formativi all‟interno di documentate iniziative di collaborazione
internazionale anche attraverso il coinvolgimento di una qualificata docenza internazionale
i) la documentata esistenza di iniziative rivolte ad attirare finanziamenti da parte di Enti
pubblici e privati finalizzati all‟erogazione di borse di studio e di contributi di funzionamento;
j) la documentata esistenza di iniziative rivolte alla pubblicizzazione verso l’esterno sia delle
modalità di selezione e accesso sia delle attività scientifico-didattiche, allo scopo di ottimizzare
l‟attrattività della Scuola, con particolare attenzione per i potenziali candidati stranieri.
Inoltre, in base all‟art.4.2, è previsto tra gli organi della Scuola un Consiglio Scientifico costituito
da almeno 5 componenti.
Infine, ai sensi dell‟art.5 “1. La Scuola di Dottorato può articolarsi in indirizzi. L’articolazione in
indirizzi, che deve essere giustificata sulla base di adeguate motivazioni scientifico-culturali e che
deve riferirsi ad un programma formativo relativo a un ambito disciplinare sufficientemente ampio
(…).
2. Un indirizzo può essere attivato soltanto qualora: (…) b. sussista nel Collegio la presenza di
almeno quattro docenti non soprannumerari afferenti ai settori scientifico-disciplinari
caratterizzanti l’indirizzo in modo esclusivo; c. siano assegnate all’indirizzo almeno due borse.”
2. PROCEDURA DI VALUTAZIONE
2.1 Presentazione delle domande e tempistica della valutazione
Le domande di attivazione di Scuole di Dottorato e di Istituzione/Rinnovo di Corsi di
Dottorato di Ricerca sono state presentate tramite una nuova procedura elettronica
realizzata a cura dalla Divisione ISI denominata ADO, nel periodo dal 22 febbraio 2010 al 22
marzo 2010. Per facilitare il lavoro di compilazione, sono state inserite all’ interno della
206
procedura ADO, a cura dell’ Ufficio Studi per la Valutazione tutte le domande di
istituzione/rinnovo presentate in forma cartacea per il XXV ciclo (2009).
All’inizio della scheda di proposta, sono stati comunicati i criteri che il Nucleo avrebbe
utilizzato in sede di valutazione:
“ - Produzione scientifica del Collegio Docenti come elemento fondamentale per qualificare le
proposte di Dottorato di Ricerca (3° requisito DM.224/99). Il Nucleo potrà utilizzare a tale scopo
le informazioni presenti nella banca dati SAPERI, ma desidera che ciascun componente del
collegio docenti, in una logica di autovalutazione, indichi sulla propria scheda (allegato1)
esclusivamente le 3 pubblicazioni che ritiene più significative degli ultimi 5 anni nell’area di
riferimento del dottorato;
- congruo numero di docenti dell’Ateneo coinvolti nel collegio (1° requisito DM.224/99);
- rapporto del dottorato con il mondo del lavoro, valutato in termini di profilo professionale che si
intende formare nonché di monitoraggio dell’inserimento lavorativo di coloro che hanno
conseguito il titolo e di verifica della relazione tra gli obiettivi formativi e le specifiche posizioni
lavorative (4° requisito DM.224/99);
- attrattività del dottorato e della sede nell’ultimo ciclo attivo (rapporto candidati presenti/posti
con borsa banditi; rapporto iscritti dottorato provenienti da altri atenei/iscritti totali);
- livello di soddisfazione dei dottorandi (informazione ricavata dal questionario inviato agli
iscritti ai corsi di dottorato nel novembre 2008);
- produzione scientifica dei dottorandi ed iniziative esistenti di pubblicizzazione e referaggio delle
tesi di dottorato;
- adeguata formulazione delle tematiche scientifiche e degli obiettivi formativi, coerentemente
con le risorse disponibili (collegio docenti, progetti di ricerca attivi, strutture di ricerca, risorse
finanziarie finalizzate al funzionamento del dottorato);
- sintesi nell’esposizione del progetto formativo e accuratezza delle informazioni fornite per la
valutazione;
- qualità del sito web dedicato al dottorato di ricerca, considerando che “il sito web del dottorato
deve essere uno strumento di comunicazione rivolto principalmente ai potenziali studenti (e come
va indicato nel bando) e deve contenere tutte le informazioni necessarie all’orientamento dello
studente”;
- internazionalizzazione, ovvero esistenza di convenzioni con atenei stranieri, attività didattiche in
lingua inglese, ecc.
- per le scuole di nuova istituzione o che chiedono il rinnovo ai sensi dell’art.3 del regolamento,
esistenza di un progetto formativo e di ricerca che illustri dettagliatamente gli obiettivi scientifico
formativi relativamente a tematiche sufficientemente ampie e, ove possibile, a carattere
interdisciplinare (art.2, comma 9, lett. g del regolamento).
Infine, limitatamente alle Scuole di Dottorato che chiedono il rinnovo ai sensi dell’art.3 del
Regolamento per le Scuole di dottorato dell'Università degli Studi di Trieste, il Nucleo dovrà
disporre anche di una relazione del Direttore che dia conto delle attività effettivamente svolte nei
tre cicli precedenti, della produttività scientifica dei docenti, degli iscritti, nonché di coloro che
nel frattempo abbiano conseguito il titolo, nonché della relazione del Consiglio Scientifico di cui
all’art.6 comma 2 del medesimo Regolamento.
Per quanto riguarda le informazioni relative a iscritti al corso di dottorato, studenti che hanno
conseguito il titolo, pubblicazioni degli iscritti, il Nucleo provvederà a reperirle autonomamente
dalle banche dati di Ateneo o sul sito del corso di dottorato che si richiede sia opportunamente
aggiornato.
Per quanto riguarda le informazioni necessarie per la verifica della permanenza dei requisiti per
i dottorati in corso di svolgimento (ex sezione III- Rinnovo dei dottorati), queste verranno
207
richieste in una fase successiva con apposito questionario, in quanto i Nuclei sono in attesa di
indicazioni dal MIUR su quali dati dovranno essere analizzati ai fini della valutazione ex-post”.
2.2 Criteri di valutazione 2010 (XXVI ciclo)
Il Nucleo ha verificato preliminarmente che nella scheda di ogni componente del collegio
fossero state indicate solamente 3 pubblicazioni degli ultimi 5 anni, scelte tra quelle
ritenute più significative della produzione scientifica connessa con le tematiche del
dottorato.
Infatti, poiché il Nucleo ha la possibilità di visualizzare l'intera produzione scientifica dei
docenti nella banca dati Saperi/CINECA, ritiene più informativo ed efficace per la
valutazione che i docenti selezionino nella proposta la propria produzione di eccellenza.
Il Nucleo analizzerà anche con l’ausilio di opportuni indicatori, i seguenti aspetti:
− produzione scientifica
del Collegio Docenti come elemento fondamentale per qualificare le
proposte di Dottorato di Ricerca (3° requisito DM.224/99);
− congruo
numero di docenti dell’Ateneo coinvolti nel collegio (1° requisito DM.224/99);
− rapporto
del dottorato con il mondo del lavoro, valutato in termini di profilo professionale
che si intende formare (4° requisito DM.224/99);
− attrattività
del dottorato e della sede nell’ultimo ciclo attivo (rapporto candidati
presenti/posti con borsa banditi; rapporto iscritti dottorato provenienti da altri atenei/iscritti
totali);
− livello
di soddisfazione dei dottorandi (informazione ricavata dal questionario inviato agli
iscritti ai corsi di dottorato nel novembre 20081);
− produzione scientifica
dei dottorandi ed iniziative esistenti di pubblicizzazione e refe raggio
delle tesi di dottorato;
− adeguata
formulazione delle tematiche scientifiche e degli obiettivi formativi,
coerentemente con le risorse disponibili (collegio docenti, progetti di ricerca attivi, strutture
di ricerca, risorse finanziarie finalizzate al funzionamento del dottorato);
− accuratezza
− sito
delle informazioni fornite per la valutazione;
web dedicato al dottorato di ricerca.
Inoltre, come auspicato dal consiglio delle Strutture Scientifiche, il Nucleo ha valutato, oltre
alla capacità di cofinanziamento prevista per il nuovo ciclo, il cofinanziamento effettivo ex
post dell’ultimo ciclo attivo e il suo scostamento da quello inizialmente preventivato.
