Physics and engineering

Specialization 1: Nanophotonics.

You will study in depth analytical (from waveguide theory to metamaterial electrodynamics), numerical (from numerical methods to modeling in CST and COMSOL packages) and experimental (from excitation of surface plasmons to single photon detectors) nanooptics methods. Metasurfaces, topological insulators, connected continuum states, optomechanics, perovskite LEDs, dielectric nanophotonics, optical sensors, spin-orbit interactions are only part of the areas of fundamental and applied science where graduates of the specialization apply their knowledge.


Specialization 2: Quantum Materials.

The main focus of specialization is theoretical methods of modeling materials (and, in general, condensed medium), in which monoparticle quantum correlations qualitatively change the properties of systems. Students will find an in-depth study of spintronics, analytical and numerical methods of first-principles modeling of the properties of materials. You will also learn to work with commercial quantum mechanical modeling packages for materials properties, as well as learn machine learning methods used in quantum physics and the basics of quantum computing.


Specialization 3: Hybrid Materials.

The main focus of the specialization is interdisciplinary research, so here we are waiting for students with different backgrounds (physicists, chemists, materials scientists, biologists) who want to engage in research at the intersection of sciences. In this specialization, you will become familiar with the basics of numerical modeling, materials science, experimental nanophotonics, as well as special areas of organic chemistry and cell biology. All students will engage in applied projects with mentors who have extensive experience working in interdisciplinary teams. MOF (metal-organic framework), targeted drug delivery, biosensors are only some of the areas where graduates of this specialization are in demand.


Specialization 4: Physics and technology of MRI systems (in Rusian).

More information you can find here Техническая физика.


Specialization 5: Telecommunication and navigation systems antennas (in Rusian).

More information you can find here Техническая физика.


Specialization 6: Semiconductor Physics.

The specialization is carried out jointly with researchers from the Physico-Technical Institute named after A.F. Ioffe RAS. Students are expected to study in-depth selected areas of quantum mechanics, kinetic phenomena in electronics and spintronics, a brand course "quasiparticles in semiconductors", as well as numerical methods in semiconductor physics. There will also be a cycle of laboratory work on modern equipment, which introduces the technology of creating semiconductor structures and allows you to study the physical foundations of the functioning of semiconductor lasers and modern methods of atomic force microscopy.

Physics and Technology of Nanostructures

Specialization 1: Physics of Nanostructures (in Russian).

More information you can find here Физика и технология наноструктур.


Specialization 2: Physics of Nanostructures for Biomedicine (in Russian).

More information you can find here Физика и технология наноструктур.


Specialization 3: Physics of Nanostructures.

The specialization is an English-language version of the Физика наноструктур (in Russian) specialization and allows you to master the curriculum in whole or in part in English. This specialization is primarily intended for students who plan to acquire the skills of scientific/educational internships at leading universities in Europe, Asia and America, as well as continue their postgraduate studies at one of the foreign universities. This specialization is also great for students who would like to receive an education in English, but doubt their level of English. In this case, they can study some of the disciplines in English, some in Russian, and during the training they can improve their level of English for effective scientific cooperation in the future with leading research centers in Europe, America, Australia, China, or successful admission to postgraduate studies at one of the foreign universities.

The specialization is aimed at teaching students the theoretical and experimental physics of nanostructured materials and hybrid structures based on them. Within the framework of this specialization, students can acquire theoretical and practical skills in the field of synthesis, characterization and study of optical, electrical, magnetic and photophysical properties of quantum-sized semiconductor nanocrystals, plasmonic and magnetic nanoparticles; principles of formation and basic physical mechanisms of functioning of hybrid nanostructures based on them. An innovative combination of theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of physics of nanostructured materials and an understanding of the main features of physical and chemical methods of their creation will allow graduates to be competitive in the modern market of knowledge-intensive highly skilled labor and successfully apply their knowledge in the industry of analytical instrumentation, environmental monitoring, energy saving.
