Symposium topics include:
-
CVD fundamentals (gas-phase and surface chemistry, reaction mechanisms, kinetics, multi-scale modeling, structure-property relationships)
-
Novel CVD precursors: design, development and characterization
-
Innovative CVD strategies (activated processes, plasma-assisted, ALD, iCVD, hybrid strategies)
-
Non-conventional materials and complex structures by CVD (nanorods and tubes, nanocomposites, nanopillars, nanoparticles and quantum dots)
-
Process control and diagnostics - in-situ spectroscopy and analytical techniques
-
Novel processing tools and reactors: CVD from the lab to the fab
-
Technological applications of CVD techniques (optoelectronics, chemical sensors, energy production, photocatalysis, MEMS devices, etc.)
