Gerhard Dehm

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gerhard Dehm (* 1965 in Ansbach ) is a German materials scientist .

Life

Dehm studied materials science at the University of Erlangen from 1986 to 1992 . After graduating , he completed his dissertation at the Max Planck Institute for Metals Research with the title Structure, Composition and Mechanical Properties of Cu / Al2O3 and Cu / Ti / Al2O3 Interfaces , with which he received his doctorate from the University of Stuttgart in 1995 .

Dehm initially stayed as a postdoc at the Max Planck Institute for Metals Research in Stuttgart until 1996, and then worked as a visiting scientist at the Technion in Haifa from 1996–1998 . He then returned to the Max Planck Institute for Metals Research as a scientist.

In 2005 he was appointed professor for materials physics at the Montanuniversität Leoben , where he headed the Department of Materials Physics and, at the same time, as director of the Erich Schmid Institute for Materials Science (ESI) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences .

In 2012 Dehm was appointed Scientific Member of the Max Planck Society and Director at the Max Planck Institute for Iron Research , where he heads the Structure and Nano / Micromechanics of Materials Department . He is also a professor at the Ruhr University in Bochum . Research priorities of his department are the modern methods of transmission electron microscopy , in situ - electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction , the experimental methods of micro- and nano-mechanics and the interfaces - and failures - physics and the mechanical properties of heterogeneous materials and thin films .
