Among them there are the State Physico-Technical Institute of Radiology [Röntgenology] (1918–1931), the Consortium of Physical and Technical Institutes (1924–1933), the A.F. Ioffe Physico-Technical Institute (FTI, 1930–1993), the Institute of Semi-Conductors of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (IPAN, 1951–1972), the Special Construction Design Office IPAN-FTI (1956–1993), and the “Fizintekh” Company (1990–1993). Archival records remain for the FTI during the entire period of its existence, a large part consists in scientific documentation—research reports, dissertations (1936–1993), patent applications and patents, articles, critiques, reviews, reports, and other scientific writings of members of the Institute. Scientific-administrative documentation includes Institute research plans, reports, minutes of council meetings of the Institute (1931–1993) and its divisions (solid-state electronics, solid-state physics, plasma physics, physics of dielectrics and semi-conductors—1989–1993, and the physics of semi-conductors and heterostructures—1993–), special scientific councils (1973–1987), and councils for dissertation defense. There is a wide range of correspondence related to research, including foreign relations. A large part of the archive consists of personnel records of Institute members. Among these are personal files of many well-known scientists, including A.F. Ioffe, A.I. Alikhanov, L.A. Artsimovich, G.A. Grinberg, E.F. Gross, P.P. Kobeko, Iu.B.Kobzarev, and B.P. Konstantinov. The archive also retains the personal papers of physicist A.P. Grinberg (1910–1985). N.B. Materials from the office of the so-called Individual Group of Academician A.F. Ioffe and his laboratory, and the subsequent Institute of Semi-Conductors of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (through 1952) are retained in the St. Petersburg Branch of the Archive of the Russian Academy of Sciences (PFA RAN, E–25, fond 852; electronically: http://isaran.ru/isaran/isaran.php?pa...).
