Fredrik Martinsen

Fredrik graduated in 2011 with an M.Sc. in Physics from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) specialising in aluminum alloys. This was followed by a Ph.D. in applied physics directed at the development of solar cells made from silicon optical fibers.

During this period, Fredrik also worked as a Research Assistant within material quality studies on Al-Mg-Si alloys and the development of production techniques and purification methods for silicon microfibers.

After his studies he joined the Institute for Energy Technology (IFE) in Oslo, where he worked on the development and commercialisation of functional nanomaterials for use in smart windows, gaining IP experience as an inventor on several patent applications and the uses of IP in business development.

In 2016, Fredrik received the Dimitris N. Chorafas Foundation Award of the Year - Prize in Physics. The Foundation awards the best doctoral student in the natural sciences.
