D. Bortoletto works in experimental particle physics, focusing on the design, testing, and radiation hardness of silicon-based particle detectors such as pixel sensors and avalanche diodes used in large collider experiments like those at CERN. This work supports upgrades to major detectors (e.g., ATLAS, CMS) and also has applications in imaging technologies like electron microscopy. Students would engage with hands-on detector hardware development, radiation testing, and instrumentation for high-energy physics experiments.
