EIGHTH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON
MAGNETIC MATERIALS, PROCESSES AND DEVICES
Part of the 206th Meeting of The Electrochemical Society
October 3-8, 2004 Honolulu, Hawaii

Call for Papers

Magnetic thin films play important roles in data recording systems, sensors, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), and other devices. New knowledge continues to be acquired in magnetic film processing including: film nucleation and growth, structure of deposits, stress and micromagnetics of films, thermal and magnetic annealing, electrochemical and electroless plating systems, etching, process chemistry, tool design, process control, etc. Our understanding of the correlations between deposition parameters, film composition, structure, properties and device performance also continues to improve.

The purpose of the symposium is to bring together electrochemists, physicists, engineers, and device designers who are working in the area of magnetic thin-film technology to review the present state of the field and to point out fruitful new areas for research. Materials of interest include Fe, Ni, Co, and their alloys, as well as laterally patterned, laminated or compositionally modulated structures, including nanowires and self-organized films

The symposium will further cover subjects specific to the fabrication of thin-film heads, microelectromechanical systems, micromotors, and other magnetic devices. The symposium will include invited review or tutorial papers and contributed papers.

Publication of a Proceedings Volume to be available after the Meeting is provisionally planned. 

Acceptance of a paper in this symposium (oral or poster) obliges the authors to submit a camera-ready copy of the full proceedings volume manuscript at the meeting. Instructions for preparing the manuscript will be sent out by the symposium organizers after the notification of acceptance is distributed by the ECS Headquarters Office. Abstracts, suggestions, and inquiries should be sent electronically to ECS Headquarters and the symposium organizers. Abstracts must be received at ECS Headquarters by June 1, 2004.
