Topic Close-up #12
Symposium G02: Atomic Layer Deposition Applications 16
Symposium focus: This symposium contains cutting edge research results on applications in Atomic Layer Processing and will focus on a variety of applications of ALD and other atomic layer-by-layer processing (like etching and cleaning). The organizers would like to invite contributions to the following topics:
- Semiconductor CMOS applications: development and integration of ALD high-k oxides and metal electrodes with conventional and high-mobility channel materials;
- Volatile and non-volatile memory applications: extendibility, Flash, MIM, MIS, RF capacitors, etc.;
- Interconnects and contacts: integration of ALD films with Cu and low-k materials;
- Fundamentals of ALD processing: reaction mechanisms, in-situ measurement, modeling, theory;
- New precursors and delivery systems;
- Optical and photonic applications;
- Coating of nanoporous materials by ALD;
- MLD and hybrid ALD/MLD;
- ALD for energy conversion applications such as fuel cells, photovoltaics, etc.;
- ALD for energy storage applications;
- Productivity enhancement, scale-up, and commercialization of ALD equipment and processes for rigid and flexible substrates, including roll-to-roll deposition;
- Area-selective ALD;
- Atomic Layer Etching (‘reverse ALD’) and related topics aiming at self-limited etching, such as atomic layer cleaning, etc.
