Ion Beam Processing of Materials and Deposition Processes of Protective Coatings

Published 31 July 1996

This collection of symposia papers is divided into two sections. The first deals with ion beam processing, a particularly powerful and versatile technology which can be used both to synthesize and modify materials, including metals, semiconductors, ceramics and dielectrics, with great precision and control. It also covers correlated effects in atomic and cluster ion bombardment and implantation. The second section examines the deposition techniques, characterization and applications of advanced ceramic, metallic and polymeric coatings or thin films for surface protection against corrosion, erosion, abrasion, diffusion and for lubrication of contracting surfaces in relative motion.
