Jonas Örtegren

Jonas Örtegren is an Associate Professor and Senior Lecturer in the Department of Engineering, Mathematics and Subject Didactics at Mid Sweden University. He serves as the subject representative for Engineering Physics and program manager for both the Master of Science program in Engineering Physics (years 4-5) and the project-based Master by Research in Engineering Physics program. His research focuses on nanomaterials and functional surfaces for energy applications.

Örtegren's research explores nanomaterials, functional materials, and surface science with applications in energy conversion (nanogenerators) and energy storage (batteries). His work spans triboelectric energy harvesting, plasmonic devices, battery electrode design, and sustainable energy solutions. Current projects include IMPHET (Innovation Environment for Advanced Materials and Processes with Sustainable Energy Applications) and aluminum-graphite dual-ion battery development.

Analysis of his recent publications reveals strong focus on:

• Advanced battery technologies including silicon anodes and aluminum-ion systems
• Triboelectric nanogenerators using sustainable materials like wastepaper
• Plasmonic devices for optical applications
• Surface engineering and nanomaterial synthesis techniques

Primary research trends show integration of energy harvesting with materials science and nanotechnology.

Örtegren manages multiple research projects:

• Flexibla och hållbara fastfasbatterier (Flexible solid-state batteries)
• ALGCC (Graphene-coated aluminum current collectors)
• IMPHET innovation environment
• Aluminum-graphite dual-ion battery development

He is affiliated with the FSCN Research Centre and supervises research in nanomaterials and energy systems. No specific students or awards are mentioned in the source material.
