DNA-based structural nanotechnology holds unique opportunities to build oligonucleotide nanostructures with tightly controlled size, shape, and surface functionality. Such remarkable molecular control over DNA nanostructures (DNs) enables construction of complex 3D structures with nanometer precision. Studies on the cell uptake and processing of nanomaterials are predominantly performed on tissue culture plastics or glass coverslips, which […]

I am interested in research on functional biointerfaces, biomimetic systems, and biological processes in native environments using tailor-made functional surfaces and advanced experimental techniques. To advance frontiers in these areas we develop new approaches with interdisciplinary character combining research in areas of biomolecular physics, chemical engineering, material surfaces, optics, nanotechnology or biology. The research focus […]

My current research stands on the interface between string theory and quantum field theory. The focus of my PhD was superstring theory, specifically the pure spinor formalism, which is used to quantize the string while keeping the spacetime (super)symmetries manifest. I continued working on fundamental aspects of string theory in the following years, including chiral […]

I am specialist in grain boundaries and their properties, mainly grain boundary segregation and migration and grain boundary engineering. Further, I am interested in various aspects of the structure and properties of 3D printed metals and alloys, crystal growth, severe plastic deformation, and composite materials. In all cases, I am focusing on microstructural changes and […]

My scientific activities are concentrated on two topics – halide perovskites mainly for photovoltaic (PV) purposes and crystalline silicon PV – passivation by silicon thin film and its characterization. The first topic, halide perovskites, is the fastest evolving branch of photovoltaics, with substantial potential for practical use, which already started to be commercialized by many […]

My interest is focused on material research with expertise in the field made up of thin films preparation by means of Physical Vapour Deposition (Pulsed Laser Deposition, magnetron sputtering, electron beam evaporation, plasma modification etc.) and their properties analyses. I developed and constructed new technologies for different kinds of coatings and nanostructured thin film fabrication. […]

Terahertz spectral range is very important for investigations of nanostructures and namely of graphene. They provide pertinent information about charge carrier transport and confinement, and e.g., about the plasmonic response [DOI:10.1002/adom.201900623]. Graphene layers show a great potential for various applications in nanoelectronics owing to a highly efficient charge carrier transport within the two-dimensional sheets and […]

Synthesis of SiQDs in non-thermal plasma, surface modifications of SiQD, the relationship between SiQD structure/surface chemistry and photoluminescence properties over a broad range of timescales (from ps). The topic of my research centers around a non-toxic light-emitting material, nanosilicon. This material is interesting due to its potential applications in diverse fields such as solar concetrator, […]

My main interest is physics of strong and electroweak interactions. I focus on exploration of the structure of matter and space-time at the smallest distance scales accessible in the Earth experiments. The smallest distances can be studied on most powerful hadron colliders in events induced by strong interaction – production of jets (collimated narrow sprays […]

My research focuses on the development and characterization of new functional materials, and their surface deposition towards possible applications e.g. the exploration of their gas sensing/evolving properties. I am in particular interested in light-active and switchable magnetic materials of transition metals and lanthanides. My research includes the synthesis and characterization of molecular nanomaterial as well […]
