Institute of Solid State Physics (Bulgaria)

Decree No 362 of 16 October 1972 by the Ministry Council of Bulgaria established the Institute of Solid State Physics as a successor of the Institute of Physics with Atomic Scientific Experimental Base at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, founded by Georgi Nadjakov in 1946.

Milko Borissov[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] professor, member of BAS is the first Director and creator of the Institute of Solid State Physics (1973–1991).

Together with Vladimir Kusev and Alexander Vavrek he created Georgi Nadjakov's room museum, started by a decision of the Board of Directors of the Institute of Solid State Physics – BAS (Protocol 7 of 26 March 1981).

The museum store documents, apparatuses and books,[14] belonged to the Bulgarian physicists (Georgi Nadjakov, Milko Borissov, Emil Nadjakov, R. Andrejchin, D. Stoyanov, E. Leyarovski N. Pashov, J. Pacheva, K. Stamenov, J. Rangelov, L. Mladzhov, A. Vavrek, A. Peeva, V. Kusev), Quantum Electronics laboratory, as far as copies and originals mostly from books published in 19th and 20th centuries.

Assene Datzev is a creator of the Theoretical Department in the Institute of Physics at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (1970).

Laboratory of Photoelectrical and optical phenomena in wide band gap semiconductors occurs in the Institute of Physics under the guidance of Milko Borissov in the middle of the 20th century.

Laboratory of Acoustoelectronics[23] [24] was established at the Institute for Solid State Physics, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in 1977.

Under the leadership of Professor Sazdo Ivanov an agreement has signed for establishment of the International Laboratory of Strong magnetic fields and low temperatures in Wroclaw, Poland since 1968.

The beginning of the Laboratory of optics and spectroscopy is placed by Professor Paraskeva Simova in the Physics Institute of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences since 1951.

Laboratory of metal vapor lasers[26] was established at the Institute for Solid State Physics, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in 1987.
