The AVS 19th International Conference on Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD 2019) featuring the 6th International Atomic Layer Etching Workshop (ALE 2019) will take place Sunday, July 21–Wednesday, July 24, 2019, at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue in Bellevue, Washington (East Seattle). Conference topics will range from fundamental mechanisms to manufacturing strategies and emerging applications.
In support of research and industry learning in these important process areas, Lam is a platinum sponsor of both the ALD conference and ALE workshop. We also sponsor best student paper awards, which recognize outstanding graduate student research in both fields.
You can hear about some of the latest advances from Lam and our collaborators at the following presentations.
