For all ALD maniacs out there I can realy recomend to spend some time on Cambridge Nanotech´s web - it is realy informative : Cambridge Nanotech. Especially interesting is the Knowledge center with customer papers, tutorials an more. Earlier they used to have a very good Abstract database but I have not been able to locate that one since Ultratech bought them.
