Andrea VezzosiAndrea Vezzosi is a postdoctoral researcher in the group of Prof. Ursula Rothlisberger at the Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering, EPFL (Switzerland). He earned his Ph.D. in Physics and Nanosciences from the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia in 2024, where he investigated spin–orbit coupling and topological states in core–shell semiconductor nanowires. During his doctoral studies, he developed nwkp, an open-source Python library for computing the band structure of core–shell nanowires using

I am a researcher at the interface of photonics and materials science; my interests and research contributions relate to the use of correlated-disordered structures for light management for ultra-thin film photovoltaic applications. This interdisciplinary research requires expertise in both simulation and nanofabrication of semiconductor devices. My career started in Germany, with a degree in microsystems engineering from the University of Applied Sciences of Regensburg and a master's in ph
