Research Awards

Angelo DI BERNARDO Research Awards

Nicholas Kurti Science Prize for Europe 2022
Prize for a European physicist doing research in the fields of low-temperature physics and/or high magnetic fields.
Comitato scientifico europeo
2022
The Award recognises Di Bernardo’s achievements in the spectroscopy of spin-polarised (spin-triplet) states in superconductor/ferromagnet hybrids and for the discovery of new coupling effects and quantum phases existing at the surfaces and interfaces of strongly-correlated electron materials and materials with low dimensionality.

IOP Brian Pippard Prize
Most prestigious prize awarded to a UK scientist working in the field of superconductivity
Institute of Physics
2017
Dr Di Bernardo’s work has provided the first direct (spectroscopic) experimental evidence for the emergence of unconventional superconducting states at the interface between superconductors and ferromagnets – which is a key result for the definitive establishment of the field of superconducting spintronics aiming at developing energy-efficient spintronics devices operating in the superconducting regime (see Di Bernardo et al., Nat. Comm. 6, 8053 (2015) and Di Bernardo et al., Phys. Rev. X 5, 041021 (2015). His most recent results showing the triggering of intrinsic superconductivity in graphene in contact with a hightemperature superconductor (A. Di Bernardo et al., Nature Comm. 8, 14027 (2017)) may also pave the way for the fabrication of novel devices exploiting the physical properties of graphene in the superconducting state.

International IEEE Graduate Study Fellowship Award
The fellowship is awarded annually to a full-time graduate student pursuing a PhD (or equivalent) degree in the area of appliedsuperconductivity, at an accredited college or university of recognized standing worldwide. The intention of the award is to encouragestudents to enter and contribute to the field of applied superconductivity.
