Ph.D
Gdańsk University of Technology
Robert Bogdanowicz received his Ph.D. degree with honours in Electronics from the Gdansk University of Technology. He worked as a post-doc researcher in Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universität Greifswald Institut für Physik. He has initiated optical emission imaging of muti-magnetron pulsed plasma and contributed to the development of antibacterial implant coatings deposited by high-power impulse magnetron sputtering. He moved back to the Gdansk University of Technology in 2011, as the group leader (15 members) and assistant professor in the Department of Metrology and Optoelectronics. His current domains of interest include selective CVD diamond growth and nanocrystalline diamond doping for environmental and biochemical nanosensors. In 2015 he held a scholarship Fulbright Senior Scholar Program at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) working on hybrid 3D diamond structures. He has served on several journal editorial boards, and currently serves as an Associate Editor for 2 JCR journals, and reviewer for over 30 journals and granting agencies. His works were recognized and featured on the 2 covers in JCR journals (e.g. Energy Technology in 2018).He promoted 2 PhDs, obtained 4 patents and his sensing technology based on diamond surface is already developed in industry.
