Dr. Ken Lau will be host and chair of the 9th International Conference on Hot Wire (Cat) and Initiated Chemical Vapor Deposition (HWCVD9) that will be held at the Chemical Heritage Foundation from September 6 to 9, 2016. The conference will bring together more than 50 participants from countries that include the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Spain, Japan, South Korea, India, and South Africa.
This international forum aims to engage researchers and scientists from academia and industry to discuss the latest discoveries and findings related to chemical vapor deposition processes activated or catalyzed by heated filaments. Invited and contributed oral and poster papers will be presented in a single session in topical areas of fundamentals, processing, materials, structures, applications, and commercialization.
This conference has been made possible through the generous support of Drexel University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, National Science Foundation, GVD Corporation, and Tokyo Electron Limited.
