Materials Science in Microelectronics II

The subject matter of thin-films - which play a key role in microelectronics - divides in our headings: the processing / structure relationship, and the structure / properties relationship.

Part II of 'Materials Science in Microelectronics' focuses on the following:

. Electrical properties
. Magnetic properties
. Optical properties
. Mechanical properties
. Mass transport properties
. Interface and junction properties
. Defects and properties

* Captures the importance of thin films to microelectronic development
* Examines the cause / effect
