Seminar: “Using beams to study thin film growth in situ and in real time:  from organic small molecule semiconductors to transition metal dichalcogenides” by James Engstrom, Cornell University

The study of thin film growth using real time techniques has always represented an important challenge to the experimentalist.  Over the past several years our group has been employing supersonic molecular beam techniques and in situ real time X-ray synchrotron radiation to examine a variety of systems in two important emerging areas:  organic small molecule … Read the rest »
