F. Umarov

The main fields of scientific interests of Professor Farid F. Umarov are Physical Electronics, Physics of Solid Surface, Interaction of Atomic Particles with Solid Surface, Computer Simulation of Physical Processes. For the last 40 years I had studied the atomic particles scattering, sputtering and channeling processes on the solid surfaces and thin films. For the first time, our group created a theory of scattering of low-energy atomic particles by a solid surface. Theoretical models and methods of computer simulation of processes of scattering, sputtering and channeling of atoms and ions on real surfaces and subsurface layers on solids and coatings have been developed. On the basis of performed researches our group developed new methods of diagnostics, modification and control over local composition, structure and state of surfaces of one- and multi-component metal and semiconductor crystals. The development of a theoretical foundation for the diagnostics and modification of the composition and structure of the crystal surfaces is one of the important problems in present-day implantation metallurgy, thin film fabrication, micro- and nanotechnology. I have published more than 300 papers including more than 30 papers in various international scientific journals with high impact factor as well as International Conferences Proceedings.
