Curriculum
Olga Russina is Associate Professor in Physical Chemistry at Chemistry Department of “La Sapienza” University of Rome. She obtained the Natural Science PhD (Dr. Rer. Nat.) at the Technical University of Berlin (GER) in 2004. During her career, she developed research activity at various international research centres. Since 2010 she works at the Chemistry Department of University of Rome Sapienza.
She is responsible of Laboratory “Structure of Disordered Materials” (at Chemistry Department Sapienza) and XRD lab at (CNIS, Sapienza), where she develops research activity in the field of structural characterization of materials, soft matter and complex systems .
Since 2020 she is Member of the Board of Directors of CNIS (Sapienza). She is a founding Member of the European Ionic Matter Society, also is a member the Editorial Board of Sustainable Chemistry (MDPI). She is Editor of a Special Issue of the Journal of Molecular Liquids on “Structural and dynamic properties of ionic liquids”. She authored two invited Perspective articles on the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters (2012 and 2017). She is author of 14 papers with >100 citations and one Highly Cited Papers (ISI). She was invited to ACS Meetings and a Gordon Conference.
Research Experience:
Prof. Olga Russina is expert of structural and dynamic properties characterization in soft matter and complex systems, with particular care devoted to ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents and their mixtures. Her paper "Nanoscale segregation in room temperature ionic liquids" appeared on J. Phys. Chem. B (2007) has >1300 citations and is a fundamental reference in the understanding of mesoscopic structural organization in ionic liquids. Her research is focused on the synergic exploitation of experimental techniques (X-ray and neutron diffraction ) and computational tools. She develops her research using in house available instrumentation (EDXD, XRD,SAXS). Particular attention is devoted to activity at European Large Scale facilities (synchrotrons and neutron sources). The presently developed research activities focus on: -
Eco sustainable mixtures of deep eutectic solvents with carbohydrates;
Role of hydrogen bonding on the formation of ion pairs in protic ionic liquids
Weak intermolecular interactions in aromatic compounds
