About the Authors
Rishat G. Valeev, PhD, is a Senior Researcher in the Department of
Physics and Chemistry of Surface of the Physical-Technical Institute of
the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Dr. Valeev has over
200 publications to his name, including chapters in monographs, articles,
reports, reviews, and patents. He managed several scientific projects,
including one funded by the Russian President, projects of the Russian
Federal Programs, and projects of the Program of Presidium of the Russian
Academy of Sciences. His research interests include light-emitting
semiconductor nanostructures, EXAFS-spectroscopy, development of
physical vapor deposition methods for evaporation of semiconductors
and metals, application of porous alumina for synthesis of nanostructures,
cathodic hydrogen production, and investigation of basic laws relating to
the structure and macro characteristics of nanostructures. He is an expert
of the Russian Science Foundation and is affiliated with the Journal of
Structural Chemistry, Semiconductors Science and Technology, Materials
Research Express, and others.
Alexander V. Vakhrushev, DSc, is the Head of the Department of
Mechanics of Nanostructures of the Institute of Mechanics of the Ural
Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Head of the Department
of Nanotechnology and Microsystems of Kalashnikov Izhevsk State
Technical University. Dr. Vakhrushev is a corresponding member of the
Russian Engineering Academy. He has over 400 publications to his name,
including monographs, articles, reports, reviews, and patents. He has
received several awards, including an Academician A. F. Sidorov Prize
from the Ural Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences for significant
contribution to the creation of the theoretical fundamentals of physical
processes taking place in multi-level nanosystems and Honorable Scien-
tist of the Udmurt Republic. He is currently a member of editorial board
of several journals, including Computational Continuum Mechanics,
Chemical Physics and Mesoscopia, and Nanobuild. His research interests
include multiscale mathematical modeling of physical-chemical processes
into the nano-hetero systems at nano-, micro-, and macro-levels; static and

dynamic interaction of nanoelements; and basic laws relating the structure
and macro characteristics of nano-hetero structures. He has published
several books, including Computational Multiscale Modeling of Multi-
phase Nanosystems: Theory and Applications, Theoretical Foundations
and Application of Photonic Crystals, and Nanomechanics.
Aleksey Yu. Fedotov, PhD, is a Senior Researcher in the Department of
Mechanics of Nanostructures of the Institute of Mechanics of the Ural
Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences and docent of the Depart-
ment of Nanotechnology and Microsystems of Kalashnikov Izhevsk State
Technical University. Dr. Fedotov’s main area of scientific interest is the
study of the processes of formation and interaction of nanoparticles and
the study of the dependence of the properties of composite materials on
the quantitative, dimensional, and structural parameters of inclusions.
He has over 80 publications to his name, including monographs, articles,
reports, reviews, and patents. He has received several awards, including
an Academician A. F. Sidorov Prize from the Ural Division of the Russian
Academy of Sciences for the best work in applied mathematics on the topic
“Creation of a software complex for multilevel mathematical modeling of
physical and chemical processes in nanomaterials.”
Dmitrii I. Petukhov, PhD, is a Researcher in the Department of Physics
and Chemistry of Surface of the Physical-Technical Institute of the Ural
Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Dr. Beltiukov has about 100
publications to his name. His research interests include synthesis of semi-
conductor nanostructures and nanocomposite systems such as nanowires,
quantum dots, and nanocrystallites in an oxide matrix, investigation of
their structure, morphology, optical characteristics, and electron structure.
