MSE312: New Methods in Thin Film Synthesis

Course Description | Course Details | Course Topics

Materials base for engineering new classes of thin films and devices. Techniques to grow thin films at atomic scale and to fabricate mutlilayers/superlattices at the nanoscale. The fundamentals of vacuum growth techniques including evaporation, molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), sputtering, ion beam assisted deposition, laser ablation, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and electroplating. Future direction of material synthesis such as nanocluster deposition and nanoparticles self assembly. Relationships between deposition parameters and film properties. Applications of thin film synthesis in microelectronics, nanotechnology, and biotechnology.

Introduce the students with or without prior knowledge of thin film synthesis technologies to the state of the art, including a variety of growth techniques. 2. Develop the basic design and problem-solving skills related to thin film fabrication and vacuum technology. 3. Gain an appreciation of the science and technology of thin films, and various applications in microelectronics and photonics industries.

Graduate students and upper level undergraduate students in Materials Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering and other related departments, or professionals in continuation education with an interest in thin film synthesis and nanotechnologies.

MSE312 is a contributor to a certificate in Thin Films and Nanomaterials.
