We at the University of Colorado are lucky enough to have the American Vacuum Society's ALD conference and ALE workshop hosted here in Colorado. The George group will have a strong presence this year with three posters and eight oral presentations by current group members (not to mention those given by group alums)! Here's the schedule of George group talks:
Saturday | Atomic Layer Etching Poster Session, 6 pm
Joel Clancey, In Situ Mass Spectrometer Studies of Volatile Etch Products During Thermal Al2O3 Atomic Layer Etching Using HF and Trimethylaluminum
David Zywotko, Thermal Atomic Layer Etching of ZnO by “Conversion-Etch” Using Hydrogen Fluoride and Trimethylaluminum
Jonas Gertsch, SF4 as a New Fluorine Reagent for Thermal ALE: Application to Al2O3 and VO2 ALE
Sunday
Steven M. George, 2:00 pm, Atomic Layer Etching Session I, Thermal Atomic Layer Etching of SiO2 by a “ConversionEtch” Mechanism
Monday
Younghee Lee, 8:00 am, Atomic Layer Etching Session III, Selectivity in Thermal Atomic Layer Etching (INVITED)
Nicholas Johnson, 11:15 am, Atomic Layer Etching Session III, WO3 and W Thermal Atomic Layer Etching Using “Conversion-Fluorination” and “Oxidation-Conversion-Fluorination” Etching Mechanisms
Tommi Kääriäinen, 11:45 am, ALD Fundamentals: Emerging Applications, Improving Processability of Poorly Flowing Pharmaceutical Powders by Atomic Layer Deposition
Jaclyn Sprenger, 4:00 pm, ALD Fundamentals: Process Development, Boron Nitride Growth at Room Temperature Using Electron Enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition (EE-ALD)
Tuesday
Alexander Yersak, 9:00 am, ALD Applications: Batteries I, Comparing Temporal and Spatial Atomic Layer Deposition for Enhanced Performance of Li Ion Battery Electrodes
Andrew Cavanagh, 2:30 pm, ALD for Manufacturing, Growth Rates During Silicon Spatial ElectronEnhanced Atomic Layer Deposition: Role of Dangling Bond Lifetime
Jasmine Wallas, 2:45 pm, ALD Applications: Batteries II, Improving Interfacial Stability of Sulfide-Based LithiumIon-Conducting Solid Electrolytes with ALD
