This book was released on 1993 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This symposium showcased the advancement in processing technology and basic scientific understanding of ferroelectric thin films. The conference highlighted the use of novel materials science analysis techniques to characterize ferroelectric thin film materials and devices and to relate the nanoscale features and responses detected by these techniques to ferroelectric, electrooptic and piezoelectric properties. Examples of newer material analysis techniques included atomic force microscopy, electron spin resonance, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, combined Rutherford backscattering- nuclear reaction analysis and the use of optical interferometry to provide a three dimensional representation of field induced displacement.
