Members participating the project

	Dr. Luca Pellegrino (Italian coordinator of the project): He is currently permanent research scientist at CNR-SPIN-unit of Genoa. His research interests are oxide electronics and oxide-based (nano)devices (field effect transistors, non-volatile memories, magnetic devices), oxide microelectromechanical systems, oxide thin film deposition by Pulsed Laser Deposition, nanofabrication techniques, inkjet printing. During the last years, he focused on the fabrication of free-standing microstructures entirely made with epitaxial transition metal oxides thin films for the realization of oxide-based micromechanical devices such as strain devices, multiresistive memories and programmable micromechanical resonators.
	Dr. Nicola Manca: He got his Ph.D. at the University of Genoa in 2015 with a thesis discussing seminal results on novel oxides-based micro-electro-mechanical systems. He then moved to The Netherlands in the group of Prof. Andrea Caviglia at Delft University of Technology, where he worked on a variety of different project also in collaboration with other groups of the Quantum Nanoscience department: low-temperature magneto-transport, PhotoEmission Electron Microscopy, RF resonators, X-Rays diffraction at synchrotron sources, fabrication measurement and simulation of (nano) electrical and mechanical devices. From April 2017 he is employed with a research fellowship at the University of Genoa, where he collaborates with the local department of CNR-SPIN for the development of oxide-based mechanical actuators, detectors and transducers.
	Prof. Daniele Marré: Daniele Marré is associate professor at Physics Department of the University of Genova. His research activities are focused on the preparation and physical properties investigation of correlated functional materials such as high temperature superconductors and transition metal oxides, with a special attention to the realization of innovative micro and nanodevices for applications in energy, electronics and sensing. Fields of interest include: thermoelectrics, spintronics, superconducting devices, microelectromechanical systems, Mott transistors, low dimensional systems.
	Prof. Teruo Kanki (Japanese coordinator of the project): He has completed his Ph.D. in material physics from Osaka University in 2004. He is currently associate professor in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Center at ISIR, Osaka University and works on novel and new concept oxide nano-electronics, such as oxide nanowire-based field effect transistors and strain devices using oxide-NEMS by control of metal-insulator phase transition.
	Mr. Yoshiyuki Higuchi: He got his baccalaureate degree in graduate school of engineering science at Osaka University in 2015. Now he is a second-year master student and works on fabrication and evaluation of strain devices using Oxide nano-electro mechanical systems (Oxide-NEMS).
	Mr. Fumiya Endo: He is a master curse student of graduate school of Engineering Science at Osaka University. He works on novel and new concept oxide-based NEMS and the flexible devices.
	Mr. Yoshihide Tsuji : He got his baccalaureate degree in graduate school of engineering science at Osaka University in 2016. Now he is a first-year master student and works on fabrication and evaluation of oxide nanowire-based field effect transistors to control metal-insulator transition by an electric field.
	Prof. Hidekazu Tanaka: He is currently professor in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Center at ISIR, Osaka University. His research interests are establish of oxide nano-fabrication techniques and oxide nanoelectronics including oxide-based field effect transistors, non-volatile memories, magnetic devices, and oxide microelectromechanical systems.
