Alexander Soldatov
Alexander V. Soldatov is Changjiang Chair Professor of Physics at Yanshan University, China. He focuses his research on novel carbon-based materials and disordered systems synthesized from nanostructured carbon precursors (fullerenes, nanotubes, graphene) under high static and dynamic pressure/high temperature. He has background and expertise in low temperature and high pressure experiment and actively uses synchrotron and neutron spallation sources in his research. He is a former member of the Swedish Universities Advisory Board on MAX IV Synchrotron Radiation Facility. Other areas of his research interest include molecular electronics devices, sensors, quantum phenomena in molecular nanostructures, single molecule spectroscopy, tribology. Professor Soldatov is a recipient of the Shubnikov Prize for research on thermal properties of solid Hydrogens (H2, HD, D2) at temperatures down to 1K. His publication record includes Science, Nano Letters, Nanoscale, PRL, PRB, etc. He served twice as Member of the EHPRG Committee. He was elected Member of the AIRAPT Executive Committee in 2015.
