Oleg Sidletskiy has got his PhD Degree in Physics of Molecular and Liquid Crystals in the Institute for Single Crystals NAS of Ukraine in 2004, habilitation in Materials Science in 2018, and professor degree in 2020 in the Institute for Scintillation materials NAS of Ukraine. His basic research interests include chemistry, physics and technology of crystal growth, development of scintillation materials. He has 121 published papers, reviews and book chapters.

THE SCOPE OF THE RESEARCH

The research conducted within the group is based on over 30 years in the technology of crystallization of oxide single crystals. This group develop and investigate novel single crystals and technologies to make them, as well as will collaborate with other groups to push the materials into new applications. We have expertise in the following materials: active laser materials – especially laser materials for near-infrared, for microlasers and lasers with broad emission spectrum (1-3 μm), nonlinear materials for second harmonic generation, crystals as passive modulators, substrate materials, piezoelectric materials, relaxor ferroelectrics, new scintillating materials potential for PET and PEM tomographs, materials for optical isolators.
