Rafael Taboryski

Rafael Taboryski is a Full Professor at Technical University of Denmark (DTU), leading the Nanofabrication Research Section at the National Centre for Nano Fabrication and Characterization (DTU Nanolab). He also serves as Head of Studies for DTU's MSc in Engineering Physics. His academic journey includes a PhD from the University of Copenhagen (1992) and a Doctor Technices degree from DTU (2021) focusing on wetting properties engineering.

Research Focus: His work spans nanofabrication of functional surfaces, optical metasurfaces, microfluidics, and smart material systems for biomedical applications. Key techniques include electron-beam lithography, plasma etching, and roll-to-roll manufacturing. Research interests also cover anti-reflective surfaces, plasmonic nanostructures, and 4D printing of microrobots.

Publications & Projects: Over 200 published works emphasize nanofabrication innovations and interdisciplinary applications. Current projects include LiDAR grating fabrication, hydrogel-based microrobots, and biofilm engineering using structured polymer surfaces. Supervision of 5 active PhD students highlights his mentorship in emerging technologies.

Facilities & Expertise: Directs DTU Nanolab's state-of-the-art cleanroom facilities. Contributions align with UN SDGs through sustainable energy solutions and advanced manufacturing methods.
