RESEARCH INTERESTS:
I began my research activity in the third year of my Bachelor’s studies in the research group of
Il’ya A. Gural’skiy, working on the direct synthesis of Fe(II) spin-crossover complexes. With the start
of my Master’s degree studies, I moved to the main research direction of Il’ya A. Gural’skiy group – hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites. This research area forms the basis of the project “Chiral Framework Materials for Advanced Optoelectronic Applications”.
At present, my scientific interests centre on metal-halide hybrid perovskites – materials that offer
broad opportunities for modern optoelectronics and photovoltaics. I am engaged in the synthesis, crystal structure analysis, and investigation of the semiconducting, hysicochemical, and optical properties of these materials. Based on the experimental data obtained, I study the influence of composition and structure on their properties and identify key characteristics that make these compounds promising candidates for use as active layers in state-of-the-art optoelectronic devices.
The main direction of my work is the preparation and comprehensive study of low-dimensional
chiral hybrid perovskites based on amino acid cations – unique compounds that lack mirror
symmetry. This structural feature means that an object cannot be superimposed on its mirror image
by any combination of rotations and parallel translations in three-dimensional space. The absence of mirror symmetry gives rise in these materials to nonlinear optical responses, spontaneous polarization, and a variety of chiroptical effects, including circular dichroism.
Another important area of my research is the development of new functional materials based on
hybrid perovskites in the form of thin-film multilayer structures. The use of such architectures makes it possible to finely tune their properties and combine several functions within a single material.
Among the multilayer systems I have been working on, I have achieved the greatest progress in
creating optoelectronic devices – hybrid perovskite-based photodetectors that operate efficiently in
both the visible and near-infrared spectral ranges.
