Laboratory for Solid State Structures is engaged in fundamental and applied research in the following
directions : • physics and technology of semiconductor materials (A4B6 compounds, single crystals,
thin films, multilayer structures); • impurity states in A4B6 compounds; • transport phenomena,
photoelectrical properties, optical properties; • IR sensors; • nanomaterials and nanostructures based
on semiconductor materials.
