Angela Longo, PhD in ‘Materials and Structures Engineering’ degree in chemical engineering, is currently a researcher at the Institute for Polymers, Composites and Biomaterials - National Research Council (IPCB - CNR) of Naples. Her current scientific interests are related to the development of new methods to prepare nanostructured materials as polymer-embedded inorganic nanostructures. Furthermore, her interests include the design and development of advanced devices for electronic, optoelectronic, and biomedical application fields based on nanostructured materials. In particular, her work concerns the study of new chemical synthesis and the morphological-structural characterization of nanomaterials by electron microscopy (TEM and SEM) and also the X-ray powder diffraction and optical spectroscopy techniques (UV-visible absorption and emission spectroscopy) to analyze the relation among chemical-physical properties and the nature, size, and shape of these nanomaterials. She has several dozen scientific papers on international journals and several participations at international conferences
