The series Springer Proceedings in Physics, founded in 1984, is devoted to timely
reports of state-of-the-art developments in physics and related sciences. Typically
based on material presented at conferences, workshops and similar scientific
meetings, volumes published in this series will constitute a comprehensive
up-to-date source of reference on a field or subfield of relevance in contemporary
physics.Proposalsmustincludethefollowing:
– name,placeanddateofthescientificmeeting

Preface
The 9th International Symposium “Optics and its Applications” was held in
Yerevan & Ashtarak, Armenia from January 15 to 19, 2022. This Symposium
wasdedicatedtotheAcademicianoftheNationalAcademyofSciences(NAS)of
Armenia,Prof.EduardKazaryan,ontheoccasionofhis80thbirthday.Therefore,it
isnotaccidentalthatmanyoftheissuesdiscussedatthesymposiumconcernedtopics
within the research field covered by the work of Prof. Kazaryan and his scientific
group.ThesymposiumwasopenedwithareportbyProf.HaykA.Sarkisyanfrom

During 5 days a total of 50 reports were presented, 9 of them in plenary talks.
Special sessions were organized for student presentations and for poster presenta-
tions.Theprizeforthe“BestStudentTalk”wasawardedtoMs.AstghikTorosyan
fromtheLaboratoryofInformationTechnologiesattheJINRDubna,Russia.
The program of the symposium included reports on the optical properties of
solids,opticsofatoms,opticalprocessesinsemiconductornanostructures,problems
of propagation of electromagnetic waves invarious media, issues of technological
growthofsemiconductornanostructuresandstudiesoftheiropticalcharacteristics.
Amongtheinvitedreports,biginterestwasraisedbythetalkon“Current-induced
Optical Activity: First Observation and Comprehensive Study” by Prof. Vadim
Shalygin from the St. Petersburg Polytechnical University, which was dedicated
totheelectro-opticalanalogueofthemagneto-opticalFaradayeffect.
A special session by Prof. Andrey Varlamov from the Tor Vergata University
of Rome, dedicated to the popularization of physics, was also received with great
resonance.

It should be especially noted that the symposium traditionally included presen-
tations of both purely theoretical nature as wellas experimental and technological
methodsforstudyingtheopticalpropertiesofvarioussystems.Ononehand,purely
theoreticalreportswerepresentedonopticalprocessesinsystemssuchasgraphene
or quantum dots of the Core/Shell/Shell type. On the other hand, experimental
resultswerediscussedonfar,midandnearinfraredphotoconductivityphenomenain

nucleationprocesses,characterizationandopticalpropertiesofgradedgapquantum
dots.
Based on the results of the Symposium, 17 representative articles have been
selectedforpublicationinthepresentvolumeofProceedings.

Eduard Kazaryan—Biography
ProfessorEduardKazaryan
January16,2022markedthe80thanniversaryofthebirthofthefamousArmenian
scientist, specialist in the field of physics of semiconductors and semiconductor
nanostructures, Academician of the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia,
Prof.EduardMusheghKazaryan.(Figs.1–3)
E. M. Kazaryan was born on January 16, 1942, in the family of the famous
ArmenianjournalistMusheghKazaryan.Duringhisschoolyears,thefuturephysics

of football, but Eduard’s father insisted on his son’s scientific career, and Eduard
Kazaryan was enrolled in the Physics Department of Yerevan State University in
1959.Inhisthirdyearofstudy,EduardKazaryanbecameoneofthebeststudents
and was sent to continue his studies at the leading University of the USSR at the
MoscowStateUniversity,theDepartmentofSemiconductorPhysicsattheFaculty
ofPhysics.Here,attheMoscowStateUniversity,theyoungEduardtakeshisfirst
stepsinscienceunderthesupervisionofV.L.Bonch-Bruevich,oneofthefamous
specialistsoftheSovietUnioninthephysicsofsemiconductors.
Professor Bonch-Bruevich was a representative of the world-famous scientific
schoolofNikolaiBogolyubov,whichwasoneofthemostpowerfulcentersoftheo-
reticalphysicsintheUSSR.Duringtheseyears,intensiveresearchwascarriedout
onthephysicalpropertiesofsemiconductorsbasedonthemethodsofquantumfield

In1966,aftergraduatingwithhonorsfromtheFacultyofPhysicsoftheMoscow
State University, Kazaryan started the postgraduate degree under Prof. Bonch-
Bruevich’s supervision. After completing his postgraduate studies in 1969, he
defendedhisPh.D.thesisonsemiconductorphysics.
In 1970 began Kazaryan’s active scientific and didactic career in Armenia.
Duringtheseyears,thephysicsoflow-dimensionalsemiconductorsbegantodevelop
and Eduard Kazaryan immediately understood and appreciated the prospects and
importance of these studies, becoming the founder of theoretical nanophysics in
Armenia. Already in 1971, the journal Soviet Physics—Semiconductors (Fizika
i Tekhnika Poluprovodnikov) published an article by E. M. Kazaryan and
R. Enfiajyan “To the theory of light absorption in thin semiconductor films in
