About my job
Angela Pirri received an M.S. degree in Physics at Pisa University and she got a Ph.D. degree in Experimental Physics at the University of Siena. She worked on non-linear optics as Marie Curie Fellow at the Laser Centre of Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, and later at the European Laboratory for Non-linear Spectroscopy (LENS) in Florence focusing on the development, characterization, and applications of novel coherent sources in the extreme ultraviolet based on high-order laser harmonics. Since 2008 she is a researcher at the Institute of Applied Physics "N. Carrara", National Research Council, CNR, in Florence, working on solid-state laser based on transparent polycrystalline ceramics and crystals with emission in the infrared and visible regions. Additionally, she is focusing on converting phosphors used in white LED technologies manufactured without using Rare-Earth Elements, REEs. In 2017, she earned a National Academic Qualification as an assistant professor in Experimental Physics of Matter and currently teaches at the University of Florence as an adjunct professor. Since 2020 she is an italian Project Manager. She was included among the “Unstoppable Women” by StartupItalia (Italy, from 2019 - to date). Pirri is the author or co-author of 113 peer-reviewed journals of the ISI circuit (h-index:26, citation:1678), 1 chapter in a book and many international conference communications.
