Acknowledgements
First of all, I would like to express my thanks to my family and friends for the
encouragement during the last four and a half years, and especially to my mother,
who visited me from time to time during my stay in Germany.
I would like to thank my advisor Prof. Dr. J.J. Schneider for his guidance and the
opportunities that were provided both in our group and in collaboration with some
other scientific institutions.
I thank Prof. Dr. R. Riedel for valuable advices during common work on a project and
for his agreement to be a co-referee of the present thesis.
I appreciate the help, comments and suggestions from my colleagues: Dr. J. Engstler,
Dr. R.C. Hoffmann, Dr. J. Khanderi, Dr. A. Issanin, Dr. G. Cherkashinin, Dr. B.
Corzilius, Dr. O. Burghaus, Dr. P. Komissinskiy, Dr. M. Nowotny, and Dipl.-Ing. I.
Balog. I would like to say many thanks to Dr. E. Rikowski and Dr. T. Herntrich for
helping me with texts in German.
I am very grateful to Dr. A. Gurlo for the opportunity to perform experiments at ESRF
in Grenoble and for reading of some my drafts and manuscripts, as well as for other
common experiments, which not only provided useful results for the present work but
also were a great educational experience. I also would like to thank Dr. J. Grattage
for her assistance at ESRF in Grenoble.
I express my thanks to Dr. P. Kraikivskii for his help in interpretation of ESR spectra
and for the fruitful discussion of some other theoretical and practical aspects of the
work.
I am grateful to Dr. D. Dzivenko and Dr. O. Avrutina for support during my stay in
Darmstadt.
