My vision for the next decade is to promote explorations of novel bulk and quasi-2D materials with broken structural and magnetic symmetries. The aim is to identify potential hosts of topological solitons and unconventional excitations. We hope to find climate-friendly materials needed for future sustainable optoelectronic technologies by combining theory and experiemnts. We are waiting […]

Our team is looking for a postdoc researcher to tackle unconventional states in correlated matter. This comprises synthesis strategies and characterization of a variety of known and novel materials, identification of promising systems, performing detailed experimental investigations of their electronic properties under various external variables, including neutron scattering and synchrotron experiments.
Ing. Luděk Heller, Ph.D.
As researcher of the Department of Functional Materials I have been investigating fascinating properties of shape memory alloys for many years. Although these alloys have been employed in medical, energy conversion, and space applications, their application potential remains, however, not fully exploited due to still limited understanding of irreversible deformation mechanisms coupled with martensitic transformation. […]
Oleg Heczko, Dr.
During the last 10 years I and my magnetic shape memory group in FZU has pursued mostly the experimental research of elasto-magnetic multiferroic materials based on Heusler alloys and more specifically on Ni2MnGa. This elasto-magnetic behavior is known as MSM phenomena. Although most of our work is experimental, also theoretical foundations were examined based on […]
Ing. Petr Hauschwitz, Ph.D., MBA
I am interested in cutting, drilling, stripping and structuring in micrometer dimensions. Mostly with ps and ns laser systems. Except that the focus is on surface functionalization to fabricate superhydrophobic, friction reduction, improved adhesion, biocompatible and antibacterial surfaces. Additionally, automatization, data processing and AI are one of the lab priorities for future micromachining.

Our newly established Group of surface molecular design specializes on theoretical description of organic molecules on the surface of inorganic solids, with a long-term goal to develop scalable bottom-up nanofabrication methods for molecular electronics and nanotechnology. We are interested in all chemical processes and methods leading to this goal – in particular high-resolution scanning probe […]
Jakub Dostálek, PhD.
The potential mentor can provide guiding in the areas of near-field and guided wave optics, plasmonics, biointerfaces, amplification strategies in optical spectroscopy, and biomolecular interaction analysis. Therefore, the topic of the project should preferably relate to combined aspects of nanophotonics, (bio)materials research applied in optical sensors and biosensors, or to light management in thin film […]
Ing. Alexandr Dejneka, Ph.D.
In my scientific work I am interested in advanced interdisciplinary research in innovative coating technologies, biomedical applications, advanced materials, and optical techniques. My research includes advanced physical methods in both modern industry and life sciences, novel applications of spectroscopic ellipsometry, and optical studies of phase transformations in solids, polymers, and biomaterials. I also investigate low […]

The scientific research of our group is oriented on optoelectronic processes in carbon-based materials. Namely the mostly studied material is diamond in various forms (bulk, nanocrystalline, nanocrystals) and its interaction with polymers. The aim is to enhance knowledge on the processes occurring at microscopic interfaces. Our approach is based on advanced variants of atomic force […]
