    Emilio Alessandro Nanni

    Associate Professor of Particle Physics and Astrophysics and of Photon Science

    BioEmilio received his B.S. in Electrical Engineering and Physics from Missouri University of Science and Technology in 2007. After graduating he worked for the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center developing non-destructive evaluation techniques for applications related to the US space program. He completed his PhD in Electrical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2013 where he worked on high-frequency high-power THz sources and the development of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectrometers using Dynamic Nuclear Polarization. His thesis was on the first photonic-band-gap gyrotron travelling wave amplifier which demonstrated record power and gain levels in the THz frequency band.

    He completed his postdoc at MIT with a joint appointment in the Nuclear Reactor Lab and the Research Laboratory for Electronics at MIT where he demonstrated the first acceleration of electrons with optically generated THz pulses. He joined the Technology Innovation Directorate (TID) at SLAC in August of 2015 where he continues his work on high power, high-frequency vacuum electron devices; optical THz amplifiers; electron-beam dynamics; and advanced accelerator concepts. Since 2024 he has served as the Division Director for RF Accelerator Research in TID.

    BioMy research focuses in the areas electrocatalysis, electrolysis, and solar-driven chemical fuel production. We develop catalysts, instrumentation, methodologies, and device engineering/designs for improved production of chemical fuels (e.g., H2, NH3, ethanol) from abundant feedstocks (e.g., H2O, N2, CO2). This work includes in situ and operando studies of catalyst/ionomer interfaces under operating conditions and is underpinned by complementary driving aims to develop next-generation electrochemical technologies and to elucidate the fundamental principles that dictate the performance of sustainably-driven electrochemical processes.
