electronics engineer research scientist
Alexander Mozalev was born on November 6, 1962, and is Belarusian. His professional formation began in radioelectronics and solid-state electronics in Belarus, where he developed an engineering and research career connected with the Minsk radioengineering and microelectronics institutions. His later work established an international research profile in electrochemically formed nanostructured oxides and thin-film materials.
Mozalev studied at the Minsk Radioengineering Institute, completing a Bachelor of Science in Design and Technology of Radioelectronic Devices from 1981 to 1985 and a Master of Science in Solid State Electronics and Microelectronics from 1985 to 1989. He subsequently completed doctoral studies in Solid State Electronics and Microelectronics at the Belarusian State University of Informatics and Radioelectronics, receiving a Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1992. His education provided the foundation for subsequent research in microelectronics, thin-film deposition, electrochemistry, and nanostructured materials.
Mozalev began his professional career as an engineer at the Radioengineering Institute from 1985 to 1987 and continued there as a junior researcher from 1987 to 1990. From 1990 to 1993 he worked as a researcher at the Belarusian State University of Informatics and Radioelectronics. He then served as a senior research scientist from 1993 to 2004 and led a research group from 2005 to 2012. During these years his work focused on electrochemical anodizing, valve-metal oxides, thin-film electronics, nanocomposite dielectrics, microcapacitors, resistive coatings, and gas-sensing materials. He was a senior researcher at Brno University of Technology in 2011–2012 and joined the Central European Institute of Technology at the same university in 2013, where he led research on electrochemistry-based nanostructuring of metal oxides for electronic, sensing, and photoelectrochemical applications. His research has included porous-alumina-assisted formation of tantalum-, niobium-, zirconium-, hafnium-, tungsten-, and molybdenum-oxide nanostructures, as well as applications in integrated capacitors, gas sensors, energy storage, biomedical coatings, and functional surfaces. He is currently a researcher in the Department of Microelectronics of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Communication at Brno University of Technology and has served as a project leader in advanced nano- and microtechnology research.
