| Session 1: Characterization: Mechanical Properties and Surface Morphology | ||||
| Location: Marco A/B (Orlando Airport Marriott) | ||||
| (Please check final room assignments on-site). | ||||
| Session Description: This symposium covers methods for coating functional thin films on 
substrates, novel instrumentation and applications of various analytical 
techniques for measuring chemical composition, mechanical properties and 
morphology.  It features two invited talks, one on microcharacterization 
of thin films and coatings and the other on nanometer-scale surface imaging. | ||||
