Graduated from the Physics Department of the M.V. Lomonosov Moscow State University (1980).
Research interests:
Physics of Semiconductors; Physics of Narrow-Gap Semiconductors; Terahertz Radiation Detectors;
Organic Semiconductors, Physics of Semiconductor Nanostructures.
Main Results:
A range of new effects has been observed on heavily doped lead telluride-based narrow-gap semiconductors.
These effects include:
-
Giant negative magnetoresistance with the amplitude exceeding 106.
-
Localization and delocalization in ultrahigh magnetic fields, mircrowave stimulation persistent
photoconductivity that allows increasing the quantum efficiency of a semiconductor up to 102.
-
Microwave resonance of the persistent photoconductivity, selective phonon- stimulated photoconductivity
observed at terahertz frequencies, and many others.
-
Physical principles of operation of a new type of sensitive photodetecting devices working in
terahertz and infrared ranges have been developed. A laboratory model of terahertz radiometer
has been constructed. Some parameters of this radiometer including responsivity, spectral range
of photoresponse, radiation hardness, and others, exceed all state of the art analogs.
-
A possibility for realization of a high-performance “continuous” focal plane array operating in
the terahertz spectral range has been suggested and experimentally founded.
Beside the areas mentioned above, a range of new directions of research is developed including
investigation of electrical transport, photoelectric and optical phenomena in supramolecular
organic semiconductors, group III nitrides, and some other materials.
