Dragan D. Mihailovic is a Slovenian physicist, working as a research scientist at the Jožef Stefan Institute, leading a research group on non-equilibrium studies of quantum materials. The group's research includes temporal studies of electronic phase transitions, mainly superconductivity and electronic crystals. He is currently acting director of the CENN Nanocenter, Professor of physics at the University of Ljubljana and the Jožef Stefan International Postgraduate School and Head of Department of Complex Matter at the Jožef Stefan Institute in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
Career
editAt the "Jožef Stefan" Institute, he set up new laboratories for short-time spectroscopy, nanoelectronics and time-resolved multiprobe tunneling microscopy and an advanced quantum devices laboratory jointly with the CENN Nanocenter.[1] Since 1985, he has been employed at the "Jožef Stefan" Institute, as scientific advisor. In 2002, he founded the Department for Complex Matter, which he still heads. He is the director of the Center of Excellence for Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies (CENN), which he founded in 2004. In the years 2010–2020, he was the president of the scientific council of the "Jožef Stefan" Institute, and in 2016–2020, the president of the Society of Mathematicians, Physicists and Astronomers of Slovenia (DMFA). He has been a member of the Slovenian academy of engineers since 1995 and In 2021, he was elected as an extraordinary member of Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts.[2]
His current interest is the study of mesoscopic metastable quantum states created through non-equilibrium processes using time-resolved methods in combination with scanning tunnelling microscopy and charge configuration topological memory devices.[3]
Awards and honors
editIn 2002, he won the Zois Prize for outstanding scientific achievements, in 1989 he won the Fulbright scholarship,[4] in 1988 he was elected as a "Honorary members of the High Table", Christ Church, University of Oxford, England.[4] In 1986, he won the award of the Boris Kidrič Foundation. In 2012, he was the first in Slovenia to receive a subsidy from the European Research Council (ERC Advanced grant) in the field of phase transitions in time using femtosecond spectroscopy.[5][6]
