معرفی
Florian Trybel is an Assistant Professor in Theoretical Physics with a focus on Materials Modelling at Linköping University, Sweden. He holds a Master's degree in Physics from the University of Bayreuth (2017) and a Ph.D. in Geosciences from the Bavarian Geoinstitute, Bayreuth (2020). Before joining Linköping University, he worked as a Postdoc in the Theoretical Physics Division (2020–2023).
His research focuses on understanding the structural, electronic, and dynamical properties of hydrides and nitrides under high-pressure conditions. Using density-functional-theory (DFT) based computations in collaboration with experimental techniques like NMR and XRD, he explores pathways to stabilize these materials at ambient conditions. Key projects include quantifying hydrogen in metal hydrides, synthesizing novel nitrogen allotropes, and developing ultra-incompressible carbon nitrides.
Recent grants include an ERC Starting Grant (2023) and Infravis Project Support Grant (2023). He teaches courses on Materials Science and Density Functional Theory. Current advisees include Timothy Lees, Henricus ten Eikelder, and Isak Wernroth.
Collaborations include work with Thomas Meier (HPSTAR), Dominique Laniel (Edinburgh), and Leonid Dubrovinsky (Bayreuth). His research has led to breakthroughs in high-pressure synthesis, including the discovery of aromatic nitrogen rings and superhard materials rivaling diamond.
