Session 13: Metrology and Materials Analysis 1
Location: Jr. Ballroom (Worcester's Centrum Centre)
(Please check final room assignments on-site).
Session Description: The purpose of this session is to exchange novel materials analysis methods as applied to the failure analysis of IC devices. Expecailly welcome are talks dealing with the application of advanced matreials analysis techniques or the application of standard technqiues applied in a new way.
