Awards

The prize for the Best Young Researcher Contribution Content was awarded to postdoctoral researcher Ing. Tibor Ižák, PhD

Award for outstanding doctoral thesis based on ZnO nanocolumns that could have wide field of applications, including biology.

Karel Tesař won Best Poster Award at the Materials Science and Engineering 2016 Congress (MSE), which took place in Darmstadt, Germany.

The presented work dealt with the fabrication of two-dimensional polycrystalline diamond-based photonic crystals.  Such diamond-based PhCs are suitable for realization of extremely sensitive bio-sensor devices.

The former head of the Department of Dielectrics, Dr Jan Petzelt, was awarded a prestigious award of the scientific community. He was recognized for his lifelong contribution to understanding ferroelectric materials.

1st place at the international conference Nanocon 2014

Lukáš Ondič received the Best Presentation Award for his contribution titled Two-dimensional Photonic Crystals for Enhancing Light Extraction Efficiency from Luminescent Layers to The 2nd International Education Forum on Environment and Energy Science.

President of the Czech Academy of Sciences prof. J. Drahoš awarded the Ernst Mach Honorary Medal for Merit in Physical Sciences to prof. Alexander Lichtenstein on October 8th, 2015. The nomination of prof. Lichtenstein was prepared by the Institute of Physics CAS.

At the end of the last year, postgraduate student Miroslav Myška from the Department of Particle Theory and Phenomenology was awarded the Prize of the Rector of the Czech Technical University in Prague for an outstanding PhD thesis of the II. Degree.
