Biography
"Before arriving to the USA in 1998, Dr. Leonid Zubkov worked at the Optical laboratory of the Department of Physics at St. Petersburg University in Russia as a Professor of Physics. His major research interests included application of molecular light scattering, Mie scattering spectroscopy, and interferometric methods to investigation of fundamental problems of phase transitions in liquids, liquid crystals and suspensions. In the course of his work Dr. Zubkov discovered for the first time the coherent light scattering in liquid crystals and observed fluctuations of non–ordinary beam when it propagates through mono liquid crystal in real time. He had assembled several optical systems for measurement of scattered light intensity and created a high resolution spectral system that was a precursor to current high-resolution correlation spectroscopy instrumentation.
