Ilya Taydakov currently works at the Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Russian Academy of Sciences. Ilya does research in Inorganic Chemistry ( d- and f- elements coordination compounds), Heterocyclic Chemistry ( synthetic chemistry of azoles, azines and thiphenes) and Organometallic Chemistry ( platinum group metals and lanthanides). Also we are investigating luminescent (photo- and electroluminescence) properties of coordination and organometallic compounds.
