Field of Research

Major Research Areas

My research interests focus on understanding of structural properties of materials, in particular III-V semiconductors and transition metal silicides, on nanoscale. As a PostDoc at the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut, Leibniz-Institut für Höchstfrequenztechnik and a guest scientist in the Structure Research and Electron Microscopy Group at the Institute of Physics of Humboldt-University of Berlin I have a great opportunity to use fundamental academic materials research to influence technological application of these materials in fields of optoelectronics and electronics.

As an associated member of the group Novel Materials at Humboldt University of Berlin I have a unique opportunity to spread my research intersets on novel nanostructured materials, like topological insulators, ferecrystals, etc.

To analyse structural properties on nanoscale I use different techniques of Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), which are available in TEM group at the Institute of Physics, Humboldt University of Berlin.

Currently, my major research areas are:

• Structural analysis of III-nitride-based heterostructures for UV LEDs as well as microwave and power transistors
• Analysis of nonpolar and semipolar (Al,Ga)N buffer layers
