XXIX Symposium “Nanophysics and Nanoelectronics”

The XXIX International Symposium “Nanophysics and Nanoelectronics” was held in Nizhny Novgorod from March 10 to March 11, 2024. More than six hundred employees from many leading scientific laboratories in Russia from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok took part in the Symposium.

During the Symposium, a competition of young scientists' works was also held. The winners of the competition are:

• Grigory Bobkov, MIPT. “Gate-controlled proximity effect in superconductor/ferromagnet van der Waals heterostructures”;
• Anna Elistratova, VNIIA. “Experimental study of Nb/Au/Nb SNS contacts for the implementation of superconducting neurons”;
• Alexander Frolov, MIPT. “Electronic structure of superconducting and magnetic topological insulators with the GeAs2Te4-type structure”;
• Petr Gerevenkov, Ioffe Institute. “Effect of the difference between the group velocities of magnetostatic spin and surface acoustic waves on the magnetoacoustic coupling”;
• Dmitry Kazmin, ISSP RAS. “Fractional ac Josephson effect as evidence of topological hinge states in a Dirac semimetal NiTe2”;
• Valentin Mylnikov, Ioffe Institute. “Inverse Faraday effect in 2D topological insulator”;
• Yuri Serov, Ioffe Institute. “Anisotropic quantum dots as a source of entangled multiphoton states”;
• Ekaterina Smolina, IAP RAS. “Loop topological defects in two-dimensional photonic crystals”;
• Anton Solomonov, SPbSU. “Effect of high-temperature annealing on the formation of interlayer regions in multilayer short-period structures [NiMo/Si]”;
• Vladimir Zhaketov, JINR. “Investigation of magnetism and superconductivity in layered Fibonacci systems”.

Congratulations to the winners! All winners were awarded diplomas and prizes.
