CNR – ISM Institute of Structure of Matter

Research in the field of solid-state materials and physics. Design of synchrotron beamlines in the soft X-ray band. Research of excellence in an interdisciplinary field among physics, chemistry and materials science.

The activities range from modelling to the prototypical creation of devices, passing from the study of processes to the preparation and functionalization of materials, the characterisation of their structural and electronic properties, and developing new instrumentation and methodologies. Application sectors: energy, environment, systems of biological interest, electronic and magnetic devices, cultural heritage and enabling technologies (KETs).
