Professor Francesca Marchetti


Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain
Francesca Maria Marchetti completed her PhD in 2002 at the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, Italy. She subsequently held an EPSRC Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of Cambridge and an EPSRC Advanced Research Fellowship at the University of Oxford. In 2008, she was awarded a Ramon y Cajal fellowship to work at the Theory of Condensed Matter Department of the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, where she was later promoted to Associate Professor and then to Professor Titular. She is currently affiliated with the IFIMAC-Condensed Matter Physics Center.

Her research interests include solid-state polaritons and degenerate gases of atoms. She has worked on various aspects of collective phenomena in strongly correlated systems, macroscopic phase coherence, and superfluidity. Her most significant contributions include research on collective phases and superfluid properties of polariton microcavity heterostructures driven into different regimes, imbalanced mixtures of Fermi and Bose-Fermi gases, and density-wave phases in fermionic gases with a permanent dipole moment. More recently, her focus has shifted to the study of charged polaritons in doped two-dimensional semiconductors and Rydberg polaritons.
