“Advanced Materials Research for Future Trends in
Information Technology“
Prof. Ignacio Pascual from FU Berlin (www.physik.fu-berlin.de/~pascual/ ) and Dr. Thomas Schroeder from the Materials Research Department at IHP-Microelectronics (www.ihp-microelectronics.com) offered during the winter course 2005 / 2006 a seminar on technology oriented materials research for future micro – and nanoelectronic device generations. By joining the forces of two scientists from basic and applied materials science, the aim of the course is to address physical (device ideas, fundamental materials limits etc.) and technological (process integration, electric parameters etc.) concepts on an equal footing. The course is intended for diploma and PhD students as well as PostDocs, willing to refresh their knowledge on current research topics in technology oriented materials science. The lectures are online available and free of charge (more).
