Fomin C.D. The Institute of Semiconductor Physics

Academy of Sciences (ISP SB RAS) was founded in 1964

based on the unification of the Institute of Solid Physics and Semiconductor Electronics SB USSR AS on USSR RAS Presiduim Resolution N 49, 24 April, 1964.

The Institute of Semiconductor Physics, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences was founded in 1964.

* topical problems of optics and laser physics.

of electronics whose base is the advancement of fundamental sciences

- first solid and semiconductor physics. The latest achievements in these fields are connected with physics of low-dimensional structures and developments in nanostructures fabrication with a principally new functional potential for nano- and optoelectronics, communication means, new information technologies, measurement devices, etc.

The most outstanding achievements in this field were encouraged with Noble prizes in physics: Hall quantum effect; electron and tunnel atomic resolution microscopy; Hall fractional quantum effect; development of semiconductor heterostructures and intergral microcircuits.

that will outline the image of the XXI century, -

just like the discovery of atomic energy, invention of transistor and laser determined the image of the XX century. Nanotechnologies are to resolve the following tasks of modern semiconductor electronics: increase of computing systems production output and, for the prospect, development of quantum computer, increase of connection channels transmission capacity, increase of information memory volume and quality of information reflection systems with a simultaneous decrease of energy consumption; widening the potential of sensor and energy-saving devices; increase in the share of using electron and optoelectron components in

* medical,
* chemical,
* machinery.
