About the School

Thin films, fabricated through various deposition techniques, play a crucial role in modern materials science with applications spanning electronics, optoelectronics, energy materials, and emerging nanoscale and quantum devices. Understanding and engineering their properties are essential for cutting-edge research and technology. This school will focus on the role of ion beams in thin film fabrication and modification, providing insights into advanced techniques and applications. Renowned experts from leading Indian laboratories and institutes will share their knowledge and experiences. The program is designed for research scholars, young faculty, and researchers from universities and institutes who are involved in thin film fabrication and characterization or are keen to explore the role of ion beams in enhancing thin film properties. Join us for an immersive learning experience featuring hands-on sessions, an IUAC laboratory tour, expert interactions, and insights into ion-assisted thin film science.
