Dr. Mariya Aleksandrova is Associate Professor of Fabrication Technology of Electronics at the Department of Microelectronics, Technical University of Sofia. She received her master’s in electronic engineering in 2007 and Ph.D. in 2010, focusing on interface optimization in organic light-emitting devices. After five years as Assistant Professor, she became Associate Professor in 2015. Her research has evolved from flexible polymeric light-emitting devices to flexible and wearable electronics, energy harvesting, and thin-film supercapacitors integrated with PCBs. Since 2018, her group has emphasized energy harvesting technologies. She leads the laboratories “Thin-film Electronics,” “Photolithography,” and “Quality and Reliability in Automotive Electronics.” Dr. Aleksandrova has designed seven core curricula at the Faculty of Electronic Engineering and Technology, including courses on micro- and nanosystems, thin-film electronics, and energy harvesting technologies. She has contributed to numerous national and international projects and authored 3 books, 5 book chapters, and over 120 peer-reviewed papers.
