Dr. Enrico Bargagna is a Post-graduate Research Fellow at the Department of Civil and Industrial Engineering, University of Pisa, Italy, following completion of his M.Sc. (2022-2025) and B.Sc. (2018-2022) in Mechanical Engineering at the same institution. He is currently enrolled in a Ph.D. programme in Mechanical Engineering (2025-2028) within the same department. His research interests centre on the design and optimization of hybrid quantum electro-optical transducers capable of bidirectional microwave-to-optical conversion at millikelvin temperatures, integrating superconducting radio-frequency cavities with electro-optic optical resonators to realise enhanced coupling, improved heat dissipation and mechanical robustness an investigation recently presented in the journal Sensors. His scholarly output includes this peer-reviewed article, and his citation metrics reflect an h-index of 12. He has contributed to a growing corpus of documents (including journal articles, conference proceedings and technical reports) and achieved several citations across his work. His work has been recognised with internal academic awards (e.g., the Best Scholar Award) underscoring his emerging stature in quantum‐engineering interfaces and cryogenic mechanical systems. In conclusion, Dr. Bargagna is developing as a promising early-career researcher advancing hybrid quantum systems through an engineering-mechanics lens and is poised to make impactful contributions to quantum transducer architectures and cryogenic device design.
