Scientific expertise I have been employed at the Ruđer Bošković Institute in the Laboratory for Functional Materials, Department of Materials Chemistry, since 2009, when I started my PhD research. I received my PhD degree in 2014, and I have been a research associate since 2019 in the same Laboratory. My main scientific interest is in the field of materials science, focusing on the study of different types of materials: from multicomponent oxide glasses and glass-ceramics to dental and complex materials and various thin-films, as well as investigating their potential application in everyday life and optimizing their target properties by employing different synthesis approaches along with structural characterization techniques and testing their electrical, dielectric and magnetic properties. The combination of different methods provides direct insight into the structural features, and enables an understanding of the transport properties of such materials.
Capabilities Our research to date points to the paramount importance of chemical and phase engineering of different materials and further demonstrates ways to improve transport properties through targeted design focused on tailoring material properties using structural and microstructural design as the most important tool to achieve this goal. Such a synergistic approach, by studying the interplay of structure and properties, is in my opinion the best approach to increase the quality of research on functional materials by groups working at RBI, but also more generally in the entire academic community whose scientific interest lies in materials science. I believe that my research background and experience will allow me to contribute to WG in a variety of ways. From laboratory research in the field of various semiconductors and oxide materials to their application in various fields from energy to environment. In addition, I can also help bring academia and industry together by participating in dissemination of results and networking to open new opportunities.
