| Scope |
Materials processing plays a key role in a wide variety of critical and emerging technologies, including thin film processing, micro/nano manufacturing, quantum technologies, and additive manufacturing. To go beyond empirical process development and recipe optimization, a critical and in-depth understanding of the processing science and underlying kinetic phenomena is instrumental. This symposium aims to bring together a wealth of researchers and leaders to discuss how materials processing science has been and is being applied to address the pressing needs in thin film processing and micro/nano manufacturing. It also aims to provide a platform to discuss how processing science and kinetics can best benefit emerging fields, such as additive manufacturing. Topics of interests include (i) kinetic phenomena at the micro/nanoscale: e.g., dewetting and pattern formation; (ii) thin film processing: stress/microstructure/phase evolution; (iii) processing science and kinetic phenomena underlying advanced manufacturing; (iv) Integration of AI and data-driven approaches with materials processing science. |
