Description: The Second Workshop on Metastable and Nanostructured Materials was held in Iguaçu Falls, Paraná State, Brazil, from August 28th to 29th, 2003. Following the successful First Workshop organized in 2001, II NANOMAT was organized in order to provide another Forum for discussions on Metastable and Nanostructured Materials. This main purpose of the Workshop was fully achieved, with the participation of researchers from countries both near and far: Argentina, Brazil, England, France, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Turkey and the USA

Trends and New Applications of Thin Films

Edited by: Horst Hoffmann

Online since: August 1998

The proceedings of this Symposium cover a broad range of areas concerned with thin film research and applications. Particular emphasis is placed on the properties of thin films and their final application in modern technology.

Disordered Materials

Edited by: D.K. Chaturvedi and G.E. Murch

Online since: July 1996

Description: The physics of ordered materials is much better understood than that of disordered materials. The lack of a long-range periodic structure makes it difficult to develop the theory of disordered phases. It is not surprising that it is often found difficult to interpret experimental data on these systems.
