GRZEGORZ GRECZYNSKI is Professor in the Department of Physics, Linköping University (LiU) and the head of the Fundamental Science of Thin Films Group. Greczynski received his Ph.D. degree in surface science of organic materials in 2001 and has an eight-year industrial track record. His research interests are presently focused on low-energy ion/surface interactions for nanostructure control during low-temperature growth of transition-metal-based nitride, boride, and carbide thin films by physical vapor deposition.

Greczynski is also active in the field of XPS, with the aim to enhance the reliability of the technique. He has published 170 peer-reviewed articles that have been cited more than 9700 times. He has been involved with ASED and ICMCTF since 2010, acting as a session chair, symposium chair, program chair (2020-21) and general chair in 2022. In 2018 he was nominated Fellow of the American Vacuum Society for "seminal contributions to nondestructive X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) surface analysis, and the development of novel next-generation HiPIMS metal-ion deposition techniques."
