The Ernst-Eckhard-Koch Prize 2024 was awarded to Dr. Dieter Skroblin from the Technical University of Berlin. His dissertation “Application of X-ray Characterization Tools for ordered Nanostructures: Hybrid Detectors, Magnetic Sample Environment & Computational Simulations” was carried out at PTB and combines innovative X-ray scattering and spectrometry methods to study nanomaterials. Dr. Skroblin made significant progress in experimental setups and data interpretation, including the calibration of a hybrid pixel detector and the development of a device for aligning nanoparticles in a magnetic field. The award committee recognized the importance of his work for future research priorities at the planned synchrotron radiation source BESSY III.
