II International Young Scientists Conference on "Low Temperature Physics” (Jun 6-10, 2011)
General Information
The 2-nd International conference for young scientists "Low Temperature
Physics” was held traditionally at the Institute for Low Temperature Physics
and Engineering of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (ILTPE NASU). The main
goals of the conference, as a previous years, were to help young scientists and
students from different research institutes and universities to get in touch
with each other, to listen to review talks on hot topics presented by leading
scientists, and to try their own skills in scientific presentations. This second
international conference ICYS-LTP-2011 gathered near 150 young scientists. Most
of them were from different parts of Ukraine,
20 from FSU and European Countries as well as Czech
Republic, Germany, Russia etc.
As usual, session on
Optics and Photonics (OP) was held due to the support of OSA/SPIE Joint Chapter
of Institute of Radiophysics and Electronics. In addition, conference was
supported by IEEE Magnetics and IEEE MTT-S Student Chapters.
Preliminary program of the OP Session
included:
Invited Lecturer from OSA: Dr. Charles W. Clark, Joint Quantum institute,
National Institute of Standards and technology and the University
of Maryland, USA, "Next
generation Atomtronics”
Invited Lecturer from IEEE Magnetic: Dr. Axel Hoffman, Materials Science Division,
Argonne National Laboratory,
USA, "PURE SPIN CURRENTS: DISCHARGING SPINTRONICS”
Invited Lecturer: Prof. Longin N. Lisetski, Institute for
Scintillation Materials STC "Institute for Single Crystals”
NAS of Ukraine,
"DISPERSIONS OF CARBON NANOTUBES IN
LIQUID CRYSTALS AS A NEW CLASS OF COMPOSITE NANOMATERIALS”
Opening ceremony. Director of Institute speach with translation.
Invited lecture by Prof. Rogacki Krzysztof at Plenary session. And Invited lecture by Prof. Peter Lemmens
Optics and Photonics session
Invited talks–
This year we had great opportunity to listen 3 outstanding
lectures in frame of invited lecturer programs from SPIE, OSA and IEEE. All of
lectures were devoted to hot topics at modern science and were very interesting
and useful for all participants of Conference. Some photo from these lections
you can see below.
Invited lecturer from IEEE Magnetic – Dr. Axel
Hoffman, "PURE SPIN CURRENTS: DISCHARGING SPINTRONICS”. In this
lecture, Axel discussed different approaches for generating pure spin currents,
such as non-local electrical injection from a ferromagnet, charge-to-spin
current conversion via spin Hall effects, and spin pumping from ferromagnetic
resonance.
Invited lecturer from OSA – Dr.
Charles W. Clark, lecture "NEXT GENERATION ATOMTRONICS”. Lecture was
devoted to multifunctional materials in which control of one
physical characteristic induces changes in another, quite different property. And
ultracold atomic systems which can overcome many physical limitations of real
materials by exploiting flexible control of interatomic forces, flexible
control of optical lattice structure and of lattice-atom interactions, and of
sample preparation techniques which skirt the constraints of bulk
thermodynamics.
Invited talk – Prof. Longin N. Lisetski
presented lecture named "DISPERSIONS OF
CARBON NANOTUBES IN LIQUID CRYSTALS AS A NEW CLASS OF COMPOSITE NANOMATERIALS”. This lecture describes dispersions
of carbon nanotubes in liquid crystals as an example of new materials emerging
in the course of extensive studies in the fields of nanophysics and
nanotechnology.

Special Coffee-break from OSA & SPIE
Young Scientist Workshop
Now
it is a good tradition to hold Young Scientist Workshop in frame of each International
Conference for Young Scientists "Low Temperature Physics”. This time Young Scientist Workshop was being
held during two days. First part of Workshop was
devoted to professional development of conference participants. Due to the SPIE Traveling Lecturer
Program the participants of the conference were able to hear a very useful
lecture of Dr. Jean-luc Duomont, Founding partner Principiae,
Belgium "STRUCTURING YOUR
SCIENTIFIC REPORT”. This lecture was read at 7-th June. It was amazing lecture,
so bright and clear. All scientists, especially young, got a possibility to supplement
their experience in very important field – writing articles and other
scientific papers. This lecture was immediately translated by our leading
scientist Prof. Mikhail Strzhemechny to Russian language for much better
understanding. You can see photos from this lecture bellow.
Invited lecturer from SPIE - Dr. Jean-luc Doumont , "STRUCTURING YOUR SCIENTIFIC PAPER”
Next part of Workshop was taking place at 9-th June.
This part of Workshops pursues one's object – show students their perspectives
and possibilities in their professional life. With that point in view there are
two lections have been held. In these lections Axel Hoffman and Charles W.
Clark told us about IEEE and OSA and possibilities for students in these
societies. Both of reports were very interesting and informative for our young
scientists. And some photos from Young Scientist Workshop you can see below:
Dr. Charles W. Clark, "Optical Society of America – benefits for students and scientists”
Ph.D Hoffmann Axel - "About IEEE Magnetics Society and its work”

4. The
contest on the Best Young Scientist Presentation in Optics and Photonics Award
( 8 June 2010 )
In
frame of Optics and Photonics session at I International Conference for Young
Scientist "Low Temperature Physics –2010” was held the Contest on the best
Young Scientist presentation in Optics and Photonics field. During the Optic and Photonic session 2 best reports was chosen. The
lead scientist of Institute in Optics field was invited as Independent judges.
Our Joint IRE OSA & SPIE Student Chapter prepared special prizes for
winners. It was Special certificate, Flash-discs and money prize: 150$ for 1-st place and 100$ for
2-nd place. And, of course, for Optics and Photonic session
participants from the other city were organized a travel grants.
