Costanza Borghesi

CNR

Costanza Borghesi holds a European Master’s degree in Theretical Chemistry and Computational Modeling (TCCM) and carried out her PhD in the field of computational materials science at Università degli Studi di Perugia (UniPg).

 

She is now a post-doc researcher at CNR (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche) Institute of Nanoscience. She has specialized in ab initio simulations for energy applications, mainly photovoltaics and passive radiative cooling technologies.

 

Using VASP, Quantum ESPRESSO, and SIESTA, her research was focused on studying the electronic, optical, and thermal properties of materials, optimizing semiconductors for solar energy and high-emissivity cooling surfaces.

 

Passionate about advancing sustainable energy solutions, she collaborates with experimentalists to bridge the gap between theory and application, driving innovation in next-generation materials.

 

She has authored several peer-reviewed publications in leading journals, contributing to the understanding and design of novel energy materials.
