Thin Film Technologies

Catalog description

This course will provide you with an understanding of the general science and technology involved in the production of solid thin films, the characteristics of thin film growth processes, methods to characterize important properties of thin films, and some of their current applications, particularly with regard to alternative energy sources, energy-efficient technologies and biosensing technologies. The class will include hands-on experience with thin film production, characterization and device fabrication (and characterization).
