Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Papers from an April 1999 symposium demonstrate the need for the development and application of a variety of complementary in situ, real-time characterization techniques to advance the science and technology of thin films and interfaces critical to the development of a new generation of thin-film-based devices. Papers are arranged in sections on in situ ion and electron-beam analysis, in situ spectroscopic ellipsometry and other optical characterization, in situ diagnostics and modeling, in situ emission and optical characterization techniques, and in situ X-ray, TEM, and STM/AFM characterization and processing control.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the goals of materials science is to design alloys with pre-specified desirable technological properties. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to have a thorough understanding of the fundamental mechanisms underlying materials behavior. In particular, one must understand the effects on alloy properties caused by intentional changes in concentration and how the combinations of temperature, time and uncontrollable foreign impurities affect microstructure. In addition to the equilibrium phase information contained in phase diagrams, nonequilibrium dynamic processes and metastable phases are known to be crucial in determining materials properties. This volume brings together researchers working on various aspects of nonequilibrium processes in materials to discuss current research issues and to provide guidelines for future work. Particular attention was paid to understanding particle nucleation and growth, both experimentally and theoretically, solid-state reactions, nanosystems, liquid-solid transformations, and solidification and amorphization. On the theoretical side, fundamental principles governing nucleation and growth, and related phenomena such as coarsening and Ostwald ripening, are discussed. Progress is also reported on the phase field method and on Monte Carlo simulations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book on gallium nitride (GaN) and associated materials focuses on advances in basic science, as well as the rapidly maturing technologies involving blue/green light emitters, detectors and high-power electronics. A highlight is a report on wide-bandgap semiconductor research done in Europe. Also reported is the commercialization of a laser operating at 405nm wavelength with a 4000-hour device lifetime. At 450nm emission wavelength, significant reductions in lifetime were found, and are believed to arise from nonideal properties of the InGaN alloy used in the active layer of the device. Additional topics include: the significant success of transistors for microwave applications; improvements in the epitaxy of GaN, using both selective area growth techniques (lateral epitaxy overgrowth) and introducing low-temperature intralayers in the films; advances in both molecular beam epitaxy and metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy, including several studies of quantum dot formation in strained alloys and improvements in hydride vapor phase epitaxy, particularly for providing very thick films.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Luminescent materials are of interest to members of the spectroscopic, basic science, engineering and display communities. This book presents a wide range of topics from basic research of fluorescence to applications-driven research on phosphors and scintillators. Papers on various luminescent, fluorescent or phosphorescent mechanisms arising in inorganic crystalline and noncrystalline materials, as well as in organic materials, are featured. The use of fluorescence as a sensing technique has emerged as a sensitive and noninvasive way to probe biological activity or measure physical phenomena. To that end, progress in understanding fluorescence, the development of novel applications of fluorescence, and novel material structures are addressed. Phosphors for the emerging flat-panel-display industry are also highlighted. Topics include: inorganic phosphors; thin-film phosphors; synthesis, processing and characterization; mechanisms and defects; organic luminescence and theory and luminescence sensors.

Book excerpt: Austenitic stainless steels lend themselves to a wide range of applications. However, they normally stiffer from poor wear resistance and do not respond well to traditional surface treatments. This volume. the fruit of a current status seminar, reflects the enormous strides which have been made in the last few years in the study of the expanded austenite phase (also called the S phase) and the development of new surface treatment techniques. As well as the papers presented at the seminar, the book contains selection from related papers and a comprehensive bibliography of the literature on the subject from 1979 to 2000.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, the eighth in a popular series from MRS, features the latest technical information on ferroelectric thin films from an international mix of academia, industry and government organizations. Recent results for DRAM and FERAM devices, as well as enhancements in material performance for these applications, are presented. Significant advances in understanding leakage current, frequency dependence of the coercive field, hydrogen annealing effects, piezoelectric constants, and domain switching responses are highlighted. The development of ferroelectric thin films for piezoelectric applications are also reviewed, as are improved film-fabrication procedures including chemical vapor deposition and chemical solution deposition. Topics include: BST thin films and DRAM; integration and electrodes; Bi-based thin-film ferroelectrics; Pb-based thin-film ferroelectrics; fundamental properties of thin-film ferroelectrics; ferroelectric gate materials and devices; and piezoelectric, pyro-electric and capacitor devices and novel processing strategies.
