RESEARCH PROFILE
My research experience is in the field of nanotechnologies and condensed matter physics, and particularly, in
investigations of the possibility of creation of nanoelectronic devices on the base of polymers and siliconbased materials with swift heavy ion (SHI) tracks. Thus, I took part in swift heavy ion irradiations of various
polymers and semiconductors at the Ion Beam Laboratory of the Hahn-Meitner-Institute. I have performed
complex etching treatments of these materials, made chemical deposition of various materials and metal
evaporation on polymers and Si-based materials in various conditions, have made structural characterization
by various spectrometry and optical methods and electrical-physical characterization of the obtained
structures. I took part in creation and characterization of first prototypes of microinductivities,
microtransformers and microcapacitors, nanosensors with fullerenes and carbon nanotubes, novel
functionalized sterilizing materials for biology and medicine, being based on the polymers with etched SHI
tracks, and first representatives of a new family of nanoelectronic devices, which has been fabricated on the
base of various dielectric layers with SHI tracks on the base of silicon. Presently I am mostly engaged in
projects concerning preparation and investigation of nanostructures with magnetic materials for spintronic
applications and sensorics, on the base of above stated experience.
