Early Life and Education

Mahmud Karim oglu Kerimov was born on October 18, 1948, in Yerevan, Armenia. He completed his studies at the Faculty of Physics of Azerbaijan State University in 1971, earning a doctorate in physical and mathematical sciences.

Academic Achievements

Kerimov is a prominent physicist and professor who currently serves as the President of the National Academy of Sciences of Azerbaijan (ANAS). His research has focused on the field of molecular information converters.

Research Contributions

Kerimov's groundbreaking studies have explored the fundamental electronic and molecular processes occurring in high-molecular systems under the influence of powerful electric fields. He has established the potential for managing material properties through electric field manipulation and elucidated the mechanisms involved in information storage and transformation by macromolecules.

Nuclear and Plasma Studies

Kerimov's investigations have also extended to the study of defect formation in oxide dielectrics induced by radiation and electric plasma. His work has shed light on the conversion of radiative energy into chemical energy in processes involving water decomposition through radiation and catalysis, leading to the development of efficient methods for hydrogen production.

Spin-Magnetic Effects

In recent years, Kerimov's research has delved into the relationship between paramagnetism and electric conductivity in molecular semiconductors. This work has resulted in the identification of spin-magnetic effects and the elucidation of the hyperfine structure of magnetoresonant conductivity.
