Main research directions

  • Investigation of the formation processes of the ordered nanostructures and low-dimensional structures on semiconductor surfaces.
  • Determination of the electrical characteristics and other physical properties of the grown nanostructures.
  • Theoretical simulations of the structure and properties of the nanostructures.

     

Principal results

  • Using self-assembly processes, ordered arrays of identical-size nanoclusters (magic clusters) were formed.
  • Ordered nanostructures built of beryllium-doped silicon nanotubes were formed.
  • Effect of structural parameters on conductivity of the surface phases formed by metal adsorbates on silicon was determined.
