One of the most exciting presentations I saw in last year was given by Rajesh Krishnamurthy, a senior technology analyst of TechInsights. He was invited at the 19th International Conference on Atomic Layer Deposition in Bellevue WA, which also featured the 6th International Atomic Layer Etching Workshop. During this ALD/ALE 2019 meeting (which I covered … Read more
The 19th International Conference on Atomic Layer Deposition, featuring also the 6th International Atomic Layer Etching Workshop, is about to start. It will kick-off today (Sunday July 22) with a tutorial session and the welcome reception. I feel extremely honored as I have been awarded the ALD Innovator Award this year. I highly appreciate this … Read more
