SCOPE OF THE CONFERENCEThe Fifteenth International Conference on Metal Organic Vapor Phase Epitaxy (ICMOVPE-XV) builds upon the strong tradition established by past conferences through the presentation of the latest advances in science, technology and applications of MOVPE and related growth techniques.

The objective of the conference is to gather a wide spectrum of specialists from industry, commerce, academia, and national laboratories to present new developments in the fundamental and applied aspects of MOVPE technology. The program is designed to provide a wide range of opportunities for formal and informal discussions and presentations on unlimited topics.

TOPICS• Basic Growth Studies• Nitrides• Arsenides, Phosphides, Antimonides and Dilute Nitrides• Low Bandgap Materials• II-VI Materials and Devices• Oxides (TCO, dielectrics)• Novel Materials (magnetic materials, etc)• Heteroepitaxy• Nanostructures• Patterned Growth and Selective Epitaxy• Atomic Layer Deposition and Epitaxy• Virtual Substrates and Epitxial Lift-off• In Situ Monitoring and Process Control• In-situ Etching• Characterization• Growth of Devices• Growth for Energy Technology (solid state lighting, PV, Thermoelectrics, etc)• Equipment, Safety, Environmental and Production Issues
