Carl C. Koch is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at North Carolina State University. His research has spanned a wide range of materials research, including superconducting materials, intermetallics, amorphous metallic materials, nanostructured materials, and high-entropy alloys. Prof. Koch's pioneering work has significantly advanced our understanding of mechanical alloying techniques, particularly in the preparation of amorphous and nanostructured alloys. With over 360 published papers and seven edited books, he has achieved recognition as a Fellow in multiple professional societies, including the Minerals, Metals and Materials Society, Materials Research Society, American Physical Society, ASM International, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In recognition of his outstanding work on the synthesis of amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys through mechanical attrition, he was elected as a member of the National Academy of Engineering in 2013..[1] Throughout his career, Prof. Koch's dedication to materials science and engineering has made a lasting impact on the field, making him a respected figure in materials research.
Research and career
editProf. Koch received his Ph.D. in metallurgy in 1964 from the Case Institute of Technology (now Case Western Reserve University).[citation needed] During his graduate studies, he focused on understanding hydrogen and strain aging embrittlement under the guidance of Professor Alexander R. Troiano. After that, he pursued a post-doctoral fellowship at Birmingham University where he explored rare earth alloying behavior with Professor Geoffrey Raynor.[full citation needed]
Upon joining Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in 1965,[citation needed] Koch's research initially focused on superconducting materials,[2] particularly the challenging task of addressing the fluxoid pinning problem. Over time, he broadened his research to include topics like rapid solidification, intermetallic compounds, and the fascinating process of amorphization through mechanical alloying. Notably, he was the first to observe amorphization occurring in dissimilar metals using this method[3]
Transitioning to North Carolina State University (NC State) as a faculty in 1983,[citation needed] he continued his exploration of amorphization via mechanical alloying and further delved into the intricacies of intermetallics. His research then shifted towards the study of nanostructured materials, where he probed their mechanical behavior, thermal stability, and thermoelectric properties. Notably, his research portfolio expanded to encompass high-temperature oxide superconductors and, more recently, the intriguing field of high entropy alloys.[relevant?]
