About

Antonio Facchetti is a leading figure in the field of organic and flexible electronics, with a career defined by pioneering work on novel materials for transistors, photodetectors, and sensors. His research focuses on designing and synthesizing high-performance organic semiconductors and dielectrics, enabling the development of stretchable, ultra-flexible, and reconfigurable electronic devices. Among his most impactful contributions is the creation of an elastic synaptic transistor based on a stretchable bilayer semiconductor, a paper that has garnered 170 citations and represents a significant advance in neuromorphic computing. More recently, Facchetti has pushed the boundaries of imaging technology by developing ultra-flexible pixelated perovskite photodetectors, using nature-inspired honeycomb polymer grids to achieve high-resolution imaging with exceptional mechanical ductility. This work, published in 2025, demonstrates his continued leadership in merging materials chemistry with device engineering. With a citation count exceeding 100,000 and an h-index over 150, Facchetti is among the most influential researchers in his field, having also been recognized as a Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors and a highly cited researcher by Clarivate.
