Josef Pešička

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Josef Pešička, CSc., affiliated with the Department of Materials Physics at Charles University's Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, specializes in structure and phase analysis of materials using electron microscopy. His research spans entropic alloys, martensitic alloys, intermetallics, deformation behavior of metal alloys, and heat treatment processes.

• International collaborations with University of Münster and Ruhr-Universität Bochum
• Extensive stays abroad in Kharkov (3 months, 1980), Münster (22 months, 1990-2005), and Bochum (23 months, 2000-2010)

His publications focus on martensitic alloys, deformation mechanisms, and entropy-stabilized materials. Recent work (2018-2019) examines FeAlCrV/Mo medium-entropy alloys, while earlier studies (1984-2003) investigated Cu-Ni-Sn alloys and ferritic steels. Research emphasizes phase stability, microstructural evolution, and mechanical behavior under thermal and mechanical stress.
