Matteo Degani is a postdoctoral researcher in Giulia Grancini’s group at the University of Pavia, Italy. He obtained his master’s degree in materials science and engineering in 2019, and the Ph.D. degree in design and characterization of hybrid perovskite for new generation solar cells in 2023. His research interests include ad hoc interlayer fabrication and optimization to improve charge carrier collection, avoiding electron–hole recombination interfaces. He was awarded the Cariplo Research Grant 2024 for young researchers.
