History of Science at the Faculty

The subject of the first research on faculty research interests defined Dean Tereshchenko AI – Student academic Slutsky OO He studied the interaction of electrons with the fields in the microwave magnetron cutting. Increase the power output of the generator failed nets by introducing a space cathode – anode. Then multichamber magnetron was investigated in order to find ways to control the electronic frequency generation. In one embodiment, the magnetron frequency control generation was carried out by introducing the electron beam in the region between the bonds.

The department under the leadership vacuum electronics Zinchenko MS together with UTPI developed three-electrode electron gun, which used longitudinal beam compression. Under the leadership of VP Shestopalova began the study of slowing down, which increased resistance connection (Bulgakov BM, Ślusarski VA). By this time include the results for the study of complex waveguide cross-sectional shape, providing a broad band frequency (gray VM), and develop a method for measuring the dielectric constant material using surface waves allowed to conduct research electrical properties of dielectrics in a wide band (Yatsuk KP). The next step of research at the Faculty was the beginning of the development of the field of millimeter and submillimeter waves.

Under the guidance of prof. Valytova RO started the development of instrumentation in this frequency range. For the first time in the USSR was constructed measuring system, which includes wavemeters, power meter, frequency heterodyne and others. On the other hand, was transferred from the Department of Physics Department of Technical Physics (Head of Department Assoc. Dr. Weaver) began the study of the structure and physical properties of the complex dielectric using radio-resonance methods and relaxation techniques that were developed. Combining physics and technology has given excellent results and led to a development of quantum electronics in the current Department of Quantum Radiophysics. Subsequently it in a separate department of biophysics.

Over the entire period of the faculty should provide several groups united by close scientific interests. This group engaged: 1) issues electrodynamics – diffraction, scattering, and the spread of radiation of radio waves; 2) issues related to the study of the structure of matter and its interaction with the electromagnetic field; 3) wave propagation in space, including astronomy.

Widely known in the USSR and abroad were the work of Professor VP Shestopalova for the study of radiation and diffraction of electromagnetic waves by the method of Riemann-Hilbert boundary value problems of electrodynamics solutions. An analysis of the scattering fields of electron beams periodic inhomogeneities was proposed and a new generator of diffraction radiation (DRO) with unique performance characteristics. Development of methods napivzvorotu operator Helmholtz equation allowed to conduct rigorous calculation of scattering in the fields of public and private electrodynamic systems arbitrarily complex configuration. Currently, the Department of Theoretical Radiophysics developed following topics. Electrodynamics of periodic structures with resonant diffraction characteristics (head prof. Kazan VB), the fundamental theoretical and experimental studies of the processes of amplification and generation of continuous and pulse MM and SMM ranges in resonant electronic devices and equipment with a long O-type interaction (headed by Prof. .

Second – study gyrotropic waveguide resonators with inclusions studied physics resonances in waveguide ramifications, brought a great contribution to the theory hvylovodni-dielectric resonators, developed methods for measuring parameters of anisotropic dielectrics microwave (supervisor Assoc. Korobkyn VA). The third – studied law excitation, propagation and radial wave radiation in the microwave range based on electrodynamic systems with anisotropic outside. The developed analysis techniques allowed to carry out calculations of polarization antennas governed by pathogens kolopolyaryzovannyh waves in waveguides, compact broadband passive microwave devices (head prof. Yatsuk KP). The new issues – ray research methods, complex rays and beams in problems of distribution, diffraction and scattering of waves, and the improvement of methods of nondestructive testing using automated gauges – engaged team led by head. Department Assoc. Zvyahyntseva OO The scientific team led by prof. Shmatko AA developed the theory of nonlinear processes of interaction electron beams with high-frequency fields in the generation, increasing radiation waves in systems with extended slow-wave structures – LBV, fishing, DRO in stationary and non-stationary modes for regular, noise and stochastic fluctuations.

At the Department of Applied Electrodynamics developed the theory of microwave antennas in a wide variety of them, including dipole, slot, horn, mirrors and items tract waveguide feeder. Studies are beginning Assoc. Shubarynu J., who proposed methods of analysis and path construction aperture and waveguide-slot antennas with controlled polarization. Further research at the department were in these areas. In one of them studied Waveguide and mirrored circular polarization antenna. With the use of rigorous methods of analysis using integral equations and Wiener-Hopf method were obtained new results on research fields near the antenna and method of controlling the polarization fields radiated. Developed and implemented multi bahatohvylovi and systems with controlled polarization, designed a number of elements paths (head prof. Gorobets MM) waveguide feeders. The second direction was the decision of the internal waveguide-slot assignments involving excitation waveguide theory, developed Kisunko GV Feld and YA.N. and apparatus tensor Green’s functions. Were the results obtained by the excitation of the waveguide slots nekoordynatnymy outside and aerial complex configuration (head prof. Yatsuk LP). Using Galerkin analysis of distribution fields in the narrow slits in the waveguide allowed to go to study antennas based on electrically long gaps and get the original results (Assoc. Liashchenko VA, Assoc. Katrich VA). Under the guidance of prof. Khizhniak NO based on integral equations of electrodynamics were developed methods for solving problems asympotychni scattering dipole and slot inhomogeneities in the waveguide. Of particular interest are the results obtained by holography.
