Luciano Mescia

Luciano Mescia joined the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the Politecnico of Bari as Assistant Professor. His research activity focus on fibre and integrated optic technologies, with emphasis on rare-earth doped active devices, optical sensors for the environmental monitoring, optical fibres (conventional and microstructured) for industrial, biological and biomedical applications. Recently, he works in the field of the swarm intelligence for the design, optimization and characterization of high power fibre amplifiers for space applications and harsh environments. Moreover, his research activity is devoted to the design of lasing action in rare earth doped microspheres and to the design of novel optical antennas for solar energy harvesting. During his activity research he has cooperated with many national and international research institutions and he has been involved in several collaborative projects with academic and industrial partners. Moreover, he serves as reviewer for many international conferences and journals, as well as chairman at international conferences.
