Lebenslauf
Christian M. Franck was appointed Assistant Professor for High Voltage Engineering at the Swiss Federal
Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich on January 1, 2010.
He studied physics at the Universities of Bonn (Germany), Edinburgh (Scotland), and Kiel (Germany)
where he graduated 1999 with a diploma. Afterwards he worked at the Max-Planck-Institute for Plasma
Physics in Greifswald (Germany) in the area of electromagnetic wave propagation in magnetized plasmas,
receiving his Ph.D. in experimental physics in 2003. Then he worked at the ABB Research Center in Baden
(Switzerland) in the area of current interruption, limitation and high voltage insulation. From 2005 on he
headed the group for high voltage systems and gas circuit breakers. Dr. Franck is author and co-author of
more than 30 scientific publications in international journals and conference proceedings and has
filed/contributed to more than 15 patent applications. He is married and has two children.
The focus of his current research is to support the transformation of the electric energy transmission and
distribution system towards a more sustainable and ecological one. First topics are high-voltage direct
current (HVDC) networks, HVDC circuit breakers, and the substitution of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) in
gas-insulated equipment.
