SUMMARY:From Atoms to Function: Engineering Thin Films for Electronics\, Ma
 gnetism\, Optoelectronics and Future Quantum Technologies
DESCRIPTION:\nThin films have played a central role in the development of m
 odern materials science\, from early studies of surfaces and coatings to t
 oday’s electronic\, magnetic and optoelectronic technologies. This RSM 1
 75 event will look at the evolution of thin-film materials research\, both
  within the Royal School of Mines at Imperial and across the wider field\,
  and explore where the next generation of materials and devices may take u
 s.\nThe event will bring together research spanning a broad range of mater
 ial classes\, including semiconductors\, oxides\, magnetic and ferroic mat
 erials\, superconductors\, quantum materials and emerging low-dimensional 
 systems. We will explore how advances in synthesis\, atomic-scale control 
 of interfaces\, strain and defects\, together with increasingly powerful c
 haracterisation techniques\, are allowing material properties to be design
 ed and understood from the atomic scale upwards.\n\nLooking ahead\, the pr
 ogramme will highlight emerging directions in thin-film materials\, includ
 ing new material systems and heterostructures\, free-standing and membrane
  architectures\, two-dimensional materials and interfaces\, and the opport
 unities these provide for creating functionality beyond that available in 
 conventional bulk materials. Bringing together perspectives from across th
 e field\, the event will celebrate the history of thin-film research whils
 t looking towards its role in future electronics\, magnetism\, optoelectro
 nics and quantum technologies.\n\n\n\nSpeakers:\nProfessor Judith MacManus
 -Driscoll\,\nProfessor of Materials Science in Cambridge and Royal Academy
  of Engineering Chair in Emerging Technologies.\n\nFor more information ab
