2015 ICMCTF
Conference & Exhibition
International Conference on
Metallurgical Coatings
and Thin Films
Sponsored by the Advanced Surface Engineering Division of AVS
Conference Dates: April 20 - April 24, 2015 • Town & Country Hotel, San Diego, California
The International Conference on Metallurgical Coatings and
Thin Films (ICMCTF) is recognized as the premier international
conference focused on thin-film deposition, characterization,
and advanced surface engineering. It brings together scientists,
engineers, and technologists from academia, government laboratories and industry, thereby merging cutting-edge research
with real-world applications.
ICMCTF 2015 will be organized in seven concurrent technical
symposia and six topical symposia, addressing experimental,
theoretical, and manufacturing issues associated with the development of new coating materials and processes, and evolving
approaches to scale-up for commercial applications.
The Town and Country Resort Hotel and Convention Center, located in sunny San Diego of Southern California, will be the official conference venue, providing a relaxed atmosphere for
discussion and networking among the attendees.
The conference opens with a Plenary Session on Monday at 8:00
a.m. presented by: Eric Chason, Professor of Engineering at
Brown University, USA. "Connecting Residual Stress and Thin
Film Growth Processes: Real-time Experiments and a Kinetic
Model". Short courses and Focused Topic Sessions (FTS) will
also be offered throughout the conference week.
An extensive industrial equipment exhibition is featured in conjunction with the Conference on Tuesday and Wednesday,
April 21-22, 2015. The exhibition is open to the public, showcasing the latest in equipment, materials and services used for
the deposition, monitoring, and characterization of coatings and
thin films.
A two day exhibition will take place on Tuesday,
