The sum-product estimate for large subsets of prime fields

Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be the field of a prime order $p.$ It is known that for any integer $N\in [1,p]$ one can construct a subset $A\subset\mathbb{F}_p$ with $|A|= N$ such that $$\max\{|A+A|, |AA|\}\ll p^{1/2}|A|^{1/2}.$$ In the present paper we prove that if $A\subset \mathbb{F}_p$ with $|A|>p^{2/3},$ then $$\max\{|A+A|, |AA|\}\gg p^{1/2}|A|^{1/2}.$$
