Thin film technology is the backbone for building monolithically integrated semiconductor devices, modern computers, energy and healthcare systems.Varieties of metallic, semiconducting, superconducting and insulating materials with controlled mechanical, electrical and optical properties are integrated today to form hetrostructures and superlattices for advanced functional devices and systems, This is an interdisciplinary space course suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate spaced and science students covering the technologies forfthin film deposition, characterization and fabrication of nanoscaledevices.

Intended audience: PG and UG students of Electronics engineering, Metallurgical & materials engineering, Chemical engineering, Bio engineering and PhD and M.Sc. students of Physics, Chemistry and Materials Sciences

Prerequisites: UG course on Solid State Physics, Introduction to Materials or Basic Electronics
