Biography

Shtefan Viktoriia is a Research Scientist at the Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research Dresden-IFW (Germany, Institute for Materials Chemistry) and a Professor at the National Technical University "Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute" (Ukraine, Department of Technical Electrochemistry). She earned her initial PhD degree from the latter institution in 2005 and was awarded a second, higher doctoral degree (Dr.-Ing. habil.) in 2019. Her research encompasses key areas of applied electrochemistry, focusing on advanced surface engineering techniques. These include the anodic and micro-arc oxidation of valve metals and their alloys, the cathodic deposition of corrosion-resistant and electrocatalytically active metals and alloys (particularly with refractory metals), and the development of conversion and composite coatings. Since joining IFW-Dresden, her work has centered on the electrochemical behavior and processing of metallic glass alloys. This research, conducted over the past three years, aims to synthesize functional materials for biomedical applications and to develop catalytic materials for green energy technologies. She has contributed to scientific literature as a co-author of peer-reviewed articles, patents, and book chapters.
