Scientists at the SFedU Epitaxial Technologies Laboratory have learned how to place nanostructures on silicon with high precision. This is a crucial step towards creating chips where information will be transmitted not by electricity, but by light.
This means faster Internet, gadgets that don't heat up and keep charging longer, and new—generation computers Silicon is irradiated with gallium ions according to a pre-applied pattern. Scientists have found out that it is the number of ions at a particular point that controls the process. The resulting structures glow perfectly even at room temperature, which is necessary for the optoelectronics of the future We tested the accuracy of the new method not only in the classical way, by growing geometric shapes, but also by growing nanostructures in the form of the university's logo and abbreviation.
The results of the study are published in the Journal of Alloys and Compounds (Q1).

During the year, students from more than 50 countries studied Russian and basic subjects related to their future fields, preparing to continue their education in Russian universities at bachelor’s, master’s and PhD levels.
On July 29, international students visited the village of Starocherkassk
Russian education has traditionally been valued around the world for its emphasis on foundational knowledge and for helping graduates develop a broad perspective, which enables young professionals to build successful careers upon returning to their home countries.
During the visit of the Foundation for Advanced Studies, Alexey Voronov, Head of the Center for the Development of Advanced Materials Science, and Alexey Razumovsky, Head of the Product Development and Partnership Departments of the Advanced Research Foundation visited SFedU research infrastructure.
A year ago, twenty-five students passed a rigorous selection process to participate in a one-year internship at Central South University in Changsha, China, as part of a joint project between SFU and the company “Polyus.”
