LM thesis proposal Supervisors: Antonio Miotello & Michele Orlandi When a short and intense laser pulse hits a material, extreme thermodynamic conditions are reached, resulting in the ejection of mass from the irradiated region. This phenomenon is known as laser ablation. Despite the ablated mass is in general small, it leaves the target surface with …

LM thesis proposal Supervisor: Raffaello Potestio (raffaello.potestio@unitn.it) One of the most challenging issues in molecular simulations is to match the gap in the broad range of length and time scales which characterises soft matter systems. One method which proved capable of reducing this gap is the Hamiltonian adaptive resolution simulation (H-AdResS) scheme [1], which enables …

LM thesis proposal Supervisor: Ines Mancini (ines.mancini@unitn.it) Solvation of DNA and proteins in ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents is able to stabilize and preserve their structures. Raman spectroscopy allows to provide molecular information on several kind of macromolecular systems through the investigation of their vibrational dynamics. Thanks to the resonance effect, multi-wavelength UV Resonance …
