Thin films play an increasingly important role in modern technology. Layers of only a few nanometer thickness build up the material basis in microelectronic chips with continuously shrinking feature dimensions, while some 100 mikrometer thick films protect the blades of airplane turbines from high-temperature combustion gases. Numerous other technical applications of thin films lie between these two extremes. 

The investigation of structural properties and parameters represents a decisive step in the production and preparation of thin films and surface layers. Thin Film Analysis and Technology offers consultancy and assistance in the optimization of thin film processing and education courses in the structural characterization of surface layer samples and products.
