Dean of the Faculty Mikhail Zagrebin presented the plenary report ‘Alloys with giant magnetostriction based on Fe. History of Research and Application Prospects’. The poster presentation of postgraduate student Alekseia Enenko ‘Optimisation and application of the software package AICON2 for the study of thermoelectric properties of spin subsystems of semiconductors’ and the report of postgraduate student Ilia Artamonov ‘Ground state and electronic properties of Mn3Al alloy: Ab initio studies’ were awarded the second degree diploma. The report of master's student Marina Zagrebina ‘Modelling of excitation of surface plasmon-polaritons by a point source in nanoresonators’ was awarded a diploma of the first degree.
‘We are developing the topic we chose in the fourth year of our bachelor's degree,’ Marina explains, ‘at this stage, we have added the dynamics of conduction electrons in metal, i.e. we now take into account the macroscopic polarisation of electrons. I was interested in this topic because plasmonics can answer questions that are already being asked in our modern electronics. Plasmonics will help to create a device with a smaller physical size, but with more information channels, because plasmons have a higher frequency of emission. Also, because it is an optical system, it has a higher speed. This is a very big step for the future, and an answer to the question of what will happen to our electronics and what our computing devices will be like in, say, 10-20 years' time.’
