Dr. Seidel (born in 1966) has his PH.D. in chemistry (in 1993) with the focus on analytics.

As part of his doctoral work, Dr. Timur Seidel was intensively involved in the development and characterization of a new excitation source in optical atomic emission spectrometry for examining plastics and other non-conductive materials, the so-called sliding spark spectroscopy.

This new method is the Spark-part of the mIRoSpark2.0 device.
