In the arsenal of his developments there are rangefinders and stereo telescopes, means of aerial photography and optical control, masking of warships and lighting of submarines, he headed for many years at the same time State Optical Institute and Physical Institute of the USSR Academy of Sciences. The last six years of life he headed the USSR Academy of Sciences, played a huge role in post-war reform of Soviet science.

В арсенале его разработок дальномеры и стереотрубы, средства аэрофотосъемки и оптического контроля, маскировки военных кораблей и освещения подводных лодок, он многие годы возглавлял одновременно Государственный оптический институт и Физический институт АН СССР. Последние шесть лет жизни президент Академии наук СССР, сыграл огромную роль в послевоенном реформировании советской науки.
