Dr. Heidi Maria Cattaneo

Beruflicher Abschluss

• Ph.D. Degree in Physics, Tampere University of Technology, Finland

Curriculum Vitae

Heidi Cattaneo studied technical physics at Tampere University of Technology, Finland. She received her M.Sc. in 2000 on plasma spectroscopy. In 2006 she wrote her Thesis on tuneable diode laser spectroscopy and photoacoustic spectroscopy. After PhD, Dr. Cattaneo worked several years in research and development activities in industry in the Netherlands (Vision Dynamic Optronics) and Switzerland (Hamilton Bonaduz AG), where she was engaged in development of measurement techniques in semiconductor industry and novel liquid handling techniques for lab automation. Dr. Cattaneo joined OST in 2018 and works there as a scientific coworker for several industrial and public projects at the national and international level. Her responsibilities are development of optical measurement technologies e.g. for sub-surface damage inspections in optical materials.
