Here is a summary of the Virtual AVS ALD/ALE 2020 conference and BALD Engineering participation and Social Events during the confernece. For continued access to the presentations please see the AVS Summary below!
From the Monday invited speakers I would especially like to recommend the two talks on ALD and ALE, resp., by TEL Rob Clarke and LAM Keren Kanarik. As I have not watched all yet I will come with more review later.
Hope to meet some of you live at possibly the only live ALD Event 2020 - EFDS ALD for Industry in Freiburg Germany December 2-3, 2020 :
