Dr Dimitra Georgiadou PhD FHEA

Dimitra is UKRI Future Leaders Fellow leading the Organic and Flexible Nanoelectronics Lab within the Smart Electronic Materials and Systems (SEMS) Research Group at Electronics and Computer Science. She also serves as the Deputy Impact Champion and Outreach Officer in the UKRI Centre for Doctoral Training in Machine Intelligence for Nano- Electronic Devices and Systems (MINDS-CDT) at the University of Southampton. Previously she held a position as Post-Doctoral Industrial Fellow at the Department of Materials, Imperial College London (ICL), working on a Knowledge Transfer project with PragmatIC, a UK-SME developing flexible radiofrequency electronic devices enabling the Internet of Things. Before that she was awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship, hosted within the Experimental Solid State Physics group at the Department of Physics (ICL), where she is still an Acedemic Visitor. She is also serving as Associate Editor in Frontiers in Nanotechnology (Nanodevices sector), and is member of the programme committee of InnoLAE conference (Innovations in Large Area Electronics), taking place annually in Cambridge, and of Flexible & Wearable Electronics subcommittee of IEEE EDTM 2022.

Dimitra earned her PhD in Chemical Engineering/Organic Electronics from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), Greece, while she holds a BSc in Chemical Engineering (majoring Materials Science) from the same University. She also holds a Master’s Degree (Honours) in Advanced Materials Science awarded jointly from the Technical University of Munich, Ludvig-Maximilians University of Munich and University of Augsburg in Germany. As a post-graduate, she gained industrial experience through internships in Procter & Gamble, Italy, and Schreiner Group, Germany.

Research interests

Dimitra’s research interests involve the fabrication and optimisation of nanoscale opto/electronic devices by applying novel materials concepts, alternative patterning techniques and solution-based processes compatible with flexible substrates and printable electronics. During her PhD and first post-doc positions, she developed organic and inorganic materials-based thin films to act as interfacial layers in high performance Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) and Organic Photovoltaic Cells (OPVs). Then, she went on to explore the fabrication and characterisation of coplanar nanogap separated metal electrodes on rigid or flexible substrates using a high throughput, scalable, inexpensive technique, named adhesion lithography. Dimitra is currently interested in combining these coplanar electrodes with functional organic, inorganic and hybrid materials to develop advanced opto/electronic devices targeting high speed applications, such as high– and ultra-high frequency (HF & UHF) radio frequency diodes, high response speed photodetectors, fast switching light-emitting diodes and novel optoelectronic memristors operating as photonic artificial synapses.
