Hermann Schmalzried

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hermann Schmalzried (born January 21, 1932 in Koblenz ) is a German chemist ( physical chemistry , solid-state chemistry ).

Schmalzried received his diploma (with a thesis on the fluorescence of benzopyrene ) at Theodor Förster at the University of Stuttgart and the University of Stuttgart in 1958 was the X-ray Department Richard Glocker PhD (1890-1978) and worked as a post-doctoral researcher at Carl Wagner at Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen, a pioneer in solid-state chemistry. He completed his habilitation in 1966 at the Technical University of Hanover (disorder in ternary ion crystals). He became a full professor at the Clausthal University of Technology in 1966 and at the TH Hannover in 1975.

He was Courtesy Professor at Cornell University and Schottky Professor at Stanford University.

He wrote two textbooks on chemical reactions in solids that were internationally standard works. He also dealt with the thermodynamics of solids and electrochemistry.

In 2013 he received the Bunsen Memorial Medal and in 1994 the Wilhelm Jost Memorial Medal . He is "External Scientific Member" of the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen, a member of the Göttingen Academy of Sciences , the Leopoldina , a corresponding member of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and a member of the Academia Europaea . He is an honorary doctor in Stuttgart.
