My present scientific activity is an x-ray scattering from nanostructures including thin solid films, semiconductor multilayers and superlattices, porous matter, large molecules and proteins. The area of interest covers also crystallography phase problem and novel x-ray sources based on coherent x-ray radiation from electrons. Over twenty years of experience in science and more than ten years in industry are dedicated to theoretical, experimental studies and programming.
Within the recent decades, I was lucky to have a fruitful work with the group of Prof.U.Pietsch (Potsdam University, later Siegen University, Germany) was dedicated to investigations of multilayers with mismatched lattice parameters and x-ray diffraction under these conditions, diffuse x-ray scattering from rough interfaces under grazing-incidence condition and x-ray reflectivity, x-ray diffraction from patterned nanostructures, e.g. free-standing and buried quantum wires. All the structures are the basic elements for semiconductor industry. The experiments with nanostructures carried out at DESY (Hamburg), ESRF (Grenoble), CHESS (Ithaka) were explained on the basis of dynamical theory and Distorted Wave Born Approximation, that allows to determine physical and geometrical parameters of quantum wires.
Investigations on ZnSe/GaAs compound displayed the fine structure of interface between both components and resulted in improving the fabrication technologies for this promising material. This work was carried out during my stay in the group of Prof.K.Ishida (Science University of Tokyo, Japan). Experiments on x-ray reflectivity Photon Factory (Tsukuba, Japan) from thin ZnSe film on GaAs substrate were successfully simulated and interpreted by theory.
Fruitful work for Rigaku Corporation (Tokyo, Japan) resulted in developing of scientific commercial software for this company as well as findings in fundamental aspects of x-ray scattering theory and fundamental research in novel techniques for the production of X-rays. Joint project with Belorussian State University (Prof.I.Feranchuk), Rigaku Corporation, Arizona State University (Prof. J.C.H.Spence) has opened new area in developing of modern x-ray sources.
I have been working for Bruker AXS eleven years, where was responsible for the management and development of several software products. Presently, I am a Managing Director of Rigaku Europe SE, which represents Rigaku Corporation in Europe, CIS, Mideast and Africa.
