50 years since the invention of the copper bromide vapour laser in Bulgaria

Jubilee Scientific Session "From the Idea to the Industrial Product" Fifty years since the development of the copper bromide vapour laser by Acad. Nikola Sabotinov were celebrated at a scientific session at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Acad. Nikola Sabotinov's idea of creating a low-temperature copper laser in Bulgaria was realized in 1974 when under his leadership at the Institute of Solid State Physics (ISSP) a copper bromide vapour laser was launched and recognized as the invention of the year in 1979. In order to improve its characteristics, a number of theoretical and experimental studies had been carried out, and the effect of hydrogen was discovered. Thus, the most powerful entirely Bulgarian gas laser generating in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum was created [...]

“Green house” and a trolleybus and a hydrogen-powered ship were developed by scientists under the EPLUS NSP

Seven demonstration models for the storage and use of clean energy for transport and households have been developed by scientists under the National Scientific Programme "Low Carbon Energy for Transport and Domestic Use" (EPLUS). The achievements were presented at a final information meeting of the programme which took place today at the “Prof. Marin Drinov” Hall of BAS. The head of the programme, Academician Konstantin Hadjiivanov, presented the activities of the scientific team, which includes 206 scientists and specialists from 16 partner organizations from all over the country. The Bulgarian Academy of Sciences is the lead scientific organization for EPLUS, and the funding for the programme is provided by the Ministry of Education and Science. We have achieved the main goal of the scientific programme [...]
