REPORT


Multifunctional Thin Film Series Editors: Orlando Auciello, Argonne National Laboratory, Ramamoorthy Ramesh, University of California at Berkeley The basic applied science and applications to micro- and nano-devices of multifunctional thin films span several fast-evolving interdisciplinary fields of research and technological development worldwide. A major driving force for the extensive research being performed in many universities, industrial and national laboratories is the promise of applications to a new generation of advanced microand nano-devices. These applications can potentially revolutionize current technologies and /or create new ones while simultaneously creating multibillion dollar markets.) Multifunctional thin films cover a wide range of materials from metals to insulators to organics, including novel nanostructured metals, semiconductors, oxides, widebandgap, polymers, self-assembled organic layers and many other materials.
