Topic: thin films

The AVS symposium connects atomic-scale processing, characterisation, measurement and simulation with the behaviour of materials, surfaces, interfaces and devices. Its programme spans thin films, plasma processes, microelectronics, quantum technologies, two-dimensional materials, biomaterials and vacuum engineering. It links fundamental investigations with manufacturing, including semiconductor scaling, heterogeneous integration, autonomous experimentation and more resource-efficient production. Technical talks, posters, tutorials and an equipment exhibition support exchange between academic,

This research conference examines how to model physical interactions at flat interfaces in two-dimensional materials, thin films and metal surfaces. It addresses lattice mismatch and moiré systems, machine-learning interatomic potentials, and prediction of vibrational and electronic properties. Invited talks, short presentations and a panel connect scalable atomistic methods to materials discovery and composition optimization, including applications in carbon capture, alternatives to persistent chemicals and solar-energy materials. Researchers from academia and industry will discuss common acc
