Topical Symposium 5
This session focuses on all aspects of material science related to thin films and coatings deposited on polymer substrates as well as metal-polymer and ceramic-polymer composite materials in general. Both fundamental and applied contributions on the following topics are highly welcome:
- Thin films for flexible electronics applications (conductive, semiconducting, magnetic, barrier layers, encapsulation, etc.)
- Additive manufacturing and other novel methods for thin film fabrication
- Atomic layer (ALD) and molecular layer deposition (MLD)
- Fabrication and properties of metal-polymer / ceramic-polymer composites and interfaces
- 3D printing of metal-polymer composites
- Functional and mechanical properties of novel alloys deposited on polymer substrates (high-entropy alloys, metallic glasses, etc.)
- Flexible and stretchable electronic devices
