Rostyslav Vlokh has obtained his MS Degree at the Lviv National University in 1987, the PhD Degree at the Uzhgorod National University in 1990, and his Habilitation at the Institute of Physical Optics in 1996. Up to 2000, he has occupied a position of Professor at the Lviv National Polytechnic University. During 2001–2009 he has been the Deputy Director and, beginning from 2010, the Director of the Institute of Physical Optics. The scientific activities by Professor R. Vlokh are concerned with the optical properties of crystals in the course of structural phase transitions, the methods for studying the optical phenomena, the optical materials, the effects of parametric optics, the crystal optics, and the singular optics. |
