Atomic Layer Epitaxy Author:T. Suntola, M. Simpson Atomic layer epitaxy is a method for the production of high quality, thin, solid films of specific crystal structures or orientations. It allows very fine control of film thicknesses to one atomic layer, and has attracted attention in areas such as thin film ceramics, gas sensors, radiation detectors, optical/infrared filters, anti-corrosion sur... more »face treatments, surface hardening and fibre optical materials. This book should be of interest to materials technologists, applied physicists and chemists working in the device engineering, electronics and opto-electronics industries and in academic research.« less
