Miroslav Kučera

doc. RNDr. Miroslav Kučera, CSc., is an Associate Professor at the Institute of Physics, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University. His research focuses on advanced materials for scintillation and luminescence applications, particularly rare-earth-doped garnet crystals and thin films.

• Research Interests: Scintillation materials, codoping effects, defect engineering, and magneto-optical properties of garnet systems.

Selected publications highlight his work on Ce-doped garnets, Mg codoping strategies, and irradiation-induced defect analysis. He has supervised PhD students like Mamilla Rathaiah and contributed to optimizing scintillators for electron microscopy and radiation detection.
