After receiving his doctorate in the group of Prof. Shvindlerman at the Institute of Solid State Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Prof. Rabkin worked in the group of Prof. Gust at the Max-Planck-Institut für Metallforschung and Institut für Metallkunde of the University of Stuttgart, firstly as a Postdoctoral Humboldt Fellow and then as a University Assistant. In 1997 he joined the Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering at the Technion. He was also a visiting scientist at the University of Western Australia in Perth, the University of Aix-Marseille III in Marseille (France), Tohoku University in Sendai (Japan), Princeton University (USA), and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (Germany). In 1994 he was awarded the Otto-Hahn-Medal of the Max-Planck Society for his pioneering work on grain boundary phase diagrams, and in 1999 he was selected as a Federation of European Materials Research Societies (FEMS) Lecturer. In 2004, Prof. Rabkin was honored by the Science Prize of the German Technion Society.

The research interests of our group are focused on the thermal stability and microstructure evolution of thin metal films and metal nanoparticles, on the nanoscale mechanical properties of materials, on diffusion along the grain- and interphase boundaries, and on the hydrogen storage in nanostructured metal hydrides. Current goals are to apply the mature concepts of Physical Metallurgy to the thermo-mechanical processing of metal nanostructures. In our studies we combine the measurements of nano-mechanical properties with microstructure characterization, mesoscopic modeling, and atomistic computer simulations. Recent achievements include the discovery of the extraordinary high strength of metal nanoparticles (Au and Fe) and its dependence on particle size, the new synthesis method of thermodynamically stable core-shell metal nanoparticles, and the new methods of fabrication of hollow metal nanostructures based on short-circuit diffusion. In the field of hydrogen storage we uncovered, for the first time, that nanostructuring with the aid of severe plastic deformation considerably improves the kinetics of hydrogen desorption from Mg-based alloys.
