Vital Genadievich Hurtavy is a Belarusian research scientist whose work in solid-state physics and materials science examines the structural, dielectric, electrical, optical, and radiation-sensitive properties of semiconductor and ferroelectric crystals, including chalcogenide and nonlinear optical materials.
Background
Vital Genadievich Hurtavy was born on May 13, 1979, in Grodno, Belarus. He is the son of Liudmila and Gennadij Hurtavy. His professional life has been closely associated with Belarusian materials-science research institutions and with investigations of crystalline semiconductor materials.
Career
Hurtavy worked as a researcher at the Scientific-Practical Materials Research Centre of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus from November 30, 2001, through November 30, 2011. His research focused on solid-state physics, ferroelectric and semiconductor crystals, dielectric properties, electrical conductivity, crystal structure, optical characteristics, and the effects of electron or ionizing radiation on advanced materials. His subsequent publications continued to associate him with the Scientific-Practical Materials Research Centre in Minsk, where he contributed to studies of layered thallium chalcogenides, potassium-rubidium titanil phosphate crystals, copper-zinc-tin and related quaternary semiconductors, silver gallium selenide, and other solid-solution systems. He served as a corresponding author on several materials-science papers and collaborated with researchers from Belarusian, Azerbaijani, Ukrainian, Russian, and Spanish institutions.
Achievements
Conducted research in solid-state physics and ferroelectrics, including investigations of the structural, dielectric, electrical, optical, and radiation-related properties of semiconductor and nonlinear optical crystals.
