Arif Demir

Prof. Dr. Arif Demir graduated from the Physics Department of Middle East Technical University in 1991 and completed his PhD in Physics at the University of Essex in 1997. During his doctoral studies, he conducted research on X-ray laser technologies at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (UK), the Max Planck Institute (Germany), and research centers in the Czech Republic and France. After his PhD, he began his academic career at Kocaeli University, where he led numerous scientific research projects in laser and plasma technologies, making significant contributions to national and international studies.

His research focuses on laser material processing, spectroscopy, nano-material production, and optical systems. He has actively participated in European Union (EU) projects in collaboration with LZH (Laser Zentrum Hannover) and INM Institute in Germany, developing industrial laser applications. With over 2,600 citations and an h-index of 27, his work has had a significant impact in his field.

Since 2025, Prof. Demir has been a full-time faculty member at the Nanotechnology Engineering Department of OSTİM Technical University. He is actively engaged in research with companies in the OSTİM Organized Industrial Zone, working on laser material processing, optical spectroscopy, and LIBS (Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy). These efforts aim to integrate academic knowledge into industrial applications and develop innovative, domestically produced technologies.

Prof. Demir plays an active role in strengthening university-industry collaborations and advancing engineering education to align with industrial needs. His research includes laser technologies, plasma applications, advanced material characterization, and smart manufacturing systems. Committed to educating future engineers and researchers, he promotes project-based learning models that provide students with hands-on engineering experience.

As a leader in bridging scientific and technological innovations with industrial applications, Prof. Demir continues to collaborate with the industry to enhance Turkey’s engineering and manufacturing capabilities through cutting-edge research and development projects.
