ADVISER

Alexander V. Volyar email Volyar Alexander Vladimirovich received his degree of the Philosophy Doctor of Technical Science in the field of Physical and Quantum Electronics in The Moscow Institute Radio-Electronics in 1981 and his degree of the Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Science in the field of optics and laser physics in The Institute of Physics of Ukraine Academy of Science in 1992.    Since 1993 he worked as professor of General Physics Chair and since 1999 he is Head of General Physics Chair and Singular Optics Department.    Volyar A.V. is the author more than 170 scientific articles in the field of nonlinear optics, fiber and singular optics.

2007 Chapter Officers

	President: Yana Izdebskaya Email: izdebskaya@mail.ru Yana Izdebskaya is the PhD student of Physical Department of Taurida National V.Vernandsky University. Izdebskaya’s research focuses on singular optics, and in particular the creation of profile singular beams that capture and transport microparticles. This research contributed to a patent for optical tweezers, which have applications in optoelectronics, medicine, research, and nano- and micro-engineering. She developed an experimental technique of imprinting of high order optical vortices in Gaussian beams that diffract from the dielectric wedge. She has authored more than 20 papers, presented research at many conferences, and is named in two patents. Ms. Izdebskaya is the recipient of numerous awards and honors.
	Vice-President: Alexander Rubass Email: optical-vortex@nm.ru Alexander Rubass received his Ms. D. in 2004 in Taurida National V.Vernandsky University and is currently a third-year PhD student at the same University. Alexander Rubass became interested in the optics field during his third year of education at TNU. Main areas of her scientific activity are singular optics of optical fiber fields, free space and crystals optics. He is the author and co-author of more 10 papers in the international magazines in the field of Singular Optics. He took part at many international conferences. Alexander Rubass had got Grant of Ukrainian Council of Ministers.
	Secretary: Nataliya Shostka Email: nataliya_shostka@mail.ru Nataliya Shostka is the student of General Physics Chair of Physical Department of Taurida National V.Vernandsky University. Main areas of her scientific activity are singular optics of optical fibre fields and free space. During two years she is engaged in researches of the polarized features in a field of radiation an optical fiber. Also she studies methods of the constructions of computer networks the help of an optical fiber. She took part at some international conferences. Her scientific papers were published in some Ukrainian scientific journals. She had got Ukrainian President Scholarship.
	Treasurer: Vyacheslav Mikhaylov email svartanian@mail.ru Vyacheslav Mikhaylov is currently a third-year student of General Physics Chair of Physical Department of Taurida National V.Vernandsky University. Area of his scientific interests is topological phases in optics, singular optics, phase conjugation in nonlinear fiber optics. Also he studies methods of the constructions of computer networks the help of an optical fiber. He took part at some international conferences. He helped design and build an original project of 3D optical trapping. The project sparked his interest in optics.
