Natalia Dubrovinskaia

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Natalia Dubrovinskaia (born February 18, 1961 , Soviet Union ) is a Swedish citizen and geologist . She is married to Leonid Dubrovinsky and conducts research with him in the field of crystallography.

In 2005 she was one of the discoverers of the aggregated diamond nanorods , the hardest material at the time, and in 2012 she and her husband synthesized diamond microballs from glassy carbon that withstand a pressure of 640 gigapascals.

Life

After 1983 at the Moscow State University in Moscow their master made that followed doctorate in crystallography and crystal physics in 1989 at the same university. She completed her habilitation in 2007 at the University of Bayreuth and then moved to Heidelberg. From 2011 she has been a professor at the University of Bayreuth . Since 2012 she has been involved in the project “Single crystal crystallography at high pressure and variable temperature” and the project leader of the following two projects: “In incude synthesis and investigations of novel multifunctional strong materials - transition metal (TM = Fe, Cr, Mn, Mo, W, Ti) borides ”of the German Research Foundation and the project of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research “ Characterization of exotic electronic and structural states of matter at extreme conditions: IR and THz spectroscopy at high and ultra-high pressures and variable temperature ”.

Services

In 1989 she received a Pros for her inventions from the Ministry of Geology of the USSR. In 2006 Scientific American nominated her as one of the 50 leading researchers. In 2011 she received a Heisenberg professorship for materials physics under extreme conditions from the German Research Foundation . Linköping University in Sweden awarded her an honorary doctorate together with her husband in 2014. Since 2012 she has been the editor-in-chief of the International Journal of Materials and Chemistry . For 2017, she and her husband were awarded the Gregori Aminoff Prize .
