Brief information
The Laboratory of Quantum Nanospintronics was established by the order of the Director of the Institute (No. 12 dated 05 February 2014) in accordance with the decision to allocate a grant of the Government of the Russian Federation for state support of scientific research conducted under the guidance of leading scientists in Russian educational institutions of higher professional education, scientific institutions of state academies of sciences and state scientific centres of the Russian Federation on the topic: "Magnetic nano-optics devices with controlled loss and noise, functio ns of the quantum nano-optics". Until 2019, the leading scientist of the project and head of the laboratory was a German citizen, Professor of the Institute of Applied Physics of the University of Münster Sergey Olegovich Demokritov. Since 2019, the laboratory has been headed by Dr Mikhail Anatolievich Milyaev.
