Curriculum vitae

Nicolò Minafra is currently an undergraduate Master student in Material Science at the University of Padova.
He was born in Terlizzi (BA) in 1991 and studied Material Science at University of Bari where in 2014 he obtained his bachelor degree (mark: 110/110). He continues his studies at University of Padua and in January 2017 he will start his Master thesis with traineeship at Justus-Liebig University (Giessen Germany).
This project will be supervised by Dr. Silvia Gross (UniPD) and Dr. Wolfgang Zeier (Justus-Liebig-University). The thesis consists in the synthesis of inorganic solids (mostly thiophosphates) for the use in all-solid- state lithium-ion batteries. The synthesis will be made using inert gas method, phase and structural characterization by X-ray diffraction analysis and investigation of conductivity using impedance analysis.
