Václav Ocelik

Václav Ocelik is a Senior Researcher at the Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials, University of Groningen, specializing in experimental materials science. His research employs advanced electron microscopy techniques to characterize microstructures in amorphous alloys, thin films, and additively manufactured metals under extreme conditions.

Ocelik investigates deformation mechanisms in high-entropy alloys and rapid solidification processes. Recent publications focus on laser additive manufacturing of tool steels and magnetic properties of oxide thin films. His work has applications in energy materials and advanced manufacturing.

He teaches Materials Science courses and supervises graduate researchers. Experimental approaches include in-situ SEM, EBSD, and dual-beam microscopy to analyze materials behavior from nanoscale to macroscopic properties.
