Curriculum vitae et studiorum

Giuseppe Tondello has been Professor of Quantum Electronics at the Engineering Faculty of Padua University since 1980. Since 1991 he has also been Director of the Department of Electronics and Informatics of the same University.

Research activity: optical and spectroscopic instrumentation in the extreme ultraviolet, soft X-ray for laboratory and space applications; plasma and discharge diagnostics: synchrotron radiation instrumentation.

He is member of European Space Agency ( ESA ) working groups in Solar Physics and Co-Investigator of the UltraViolet Coronograph Spectrometer (UVCS ) of the SOHO mission. Responsible of the Research Group of Padua for the National Institute of Physics of Matter (INFM ) from 1988 until 1991. Author of more than 100 publications on international journals in the field of spectroscopy, instrumentation, laser matter interaction. Holder of several patents in the field.
