Liudmyla Derzhypolska
Ph.D., Senior Researcher
Description of the field of scientific research:
Propagation of laser beams in the atmosphere at a distance of more than 3000 meters, formation of laser radiation with specified energy spot parameters on distant targets (more than 1000 m), creation of the latest compact high-efficiency laser sources based on modern active media (Nd:YAG, Yb:YAG), development of algorithms and methods for detecting optical elements at long distances.
List of duties:
Senior Researcher at the Institute of Physics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Department of Laser Spectroscopy. Currently, all of the group's scientific works are devoted to research that studies the propagation of laser beams (with different energy characteristics) in the real atmosphere and the ability to form specified beams over long distances.
In addition to scientific work, the group also pays attention to a project to create an appropriate infrastructure in Ukraine for the production of laser systems, as well as the introduction of scientific methods for quality control and the possibility of using such laser systems that can improve our defense capabilities in the future.
Professional experience:
Since 2018, Senior Research Scientist at the Department of Laser Spectroscopy, Institute of Physics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. From 2018 to 2020, she also worked as a research methodologist (part-time) at the Department of Fundamental Problems of General and Applied Physics at the Kyiv Academic University.
From 2009 to 2013, she worked as a junior researcher at the Department of Laser Spectroscopy of the Institute of Physics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. From 2013 to 2018, she worked as a researcher at the Department of Laser Spectroscopy of the Institute of Physics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.
In addition, since 2023, she has been registered as an expert at the National Research Foundation of Ukraine to provide scientific and technical expertise on project proposals.
