After several reorganizations and renaming, since 1933, the institute became “Leningrad Physicotechnical Institute”. The form “Physicotechnical” is a Russian variant for “Physical & Technical”. Three decades later, in the 1960s, the word “Ioffe” was added to the institute name, in honor of the first director.
In 1952–1954 he headed the Laboratory of Semiconductors of Academy of Sciences of the USSR, which in 1954 was reorganized as the Institute of Semiconductors. Following Ioffe's death, in 1960 the LPTI was renamed the Ioffe Physico-Technical Institute and is one of Russia's leading research centers. [citation needed]
[citation needed] In 1988, the new Physics-Technical (Fiziko-Tekhnichesky) Department (faculty) of the Institute was created. The department was modeled on the Ioffe Physico-Technical Institute and headed by the director of the Ioffe Institute Zhores Ivanovich Alferov, recipient of the 2000 Nobel Prize in physics.

He worked in the Institute for Semiconductors, and after its merging with the A. F. Ioffe Physical Technical Institute, in the Ioffe Institute to the rest of his life. Pikus contributed to various areas of physics of semiconductors from optical spectroscopy to charge and spin transport.
In 1962 Dmitri graduated from the Department of Physics of Leningrad State University. In 1964, Dmitri joined the group of Zhores Alferov at Ioffe Physical-Technical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Leningrad. At the time, Alferov's team was among the very few research groups in the world that studied heterojunctions in ...
1985–1987: probation fellow at A.F. Ioffe Physico-Technical Institute. 1987–1993: Junior researcher at A.F. Ioffe Physico-Technical Institute. 1993: Ph.D in Physics, A.F. Ioffe Institute. Thesis title: "Theory of Free Magnetic Polarons in Quantum Wells with Semimagnetic Barriers", under the supervision of Prof. I.A. Merkulov
Ioffe was born on 2 September 1917 in Samara. He studied physics at Leningrad University and graduated in 1940 with a diploma, roughly similar to a master's degree. He served in the Red Army from 1941 to 1946. On leaving the Army, Ioffe became a staff member of the Physico-Technical Institute of Leningrad.
