Merck Showcases Expertise in Thin Film Deposition and Atomic Layer Etching at AVS ALD 2023 Conference

Leading scientists and engineers from MERCK present papers on advanced materials and semiconductor processing techniques at AVS ALD/ALE 2023.

Merck, a global science and technology company, is set to participate as a sponsor in the 23rd International Conference on Atomic Layer (ALD/ALE) 2023 organized by the Association for Science and Technology of Materials, Interfaces & Processing (AVS). The conference focuses on the science and technology of atomic layer-controlled deposition of thin films and related topics such as atomic layer etching.

Merck's leading engineers and experts will present their research papers at the conference, covering a wide range of cutting-edge topics. Thong Ngo, a Senior Process Engineer, will discuss the synthesis of 2D MoSe2 by atomic layer deposition on a wafer scale. Randall Higuchi, a Process Engineer, will present an evaluation of Zr and Hf precursors with higher thermal stability for atomic layer deposition of ZrO2 and HfO2 films.

Ravi Kanjolia, a Technology Fellow at Merck, will explore the reverse templating effects of low-resistivity Ru Ald on sputtered Ru, while Haripin Chandra, a Senior R&D Manager, will discuss the properties of VHF PEALD silicon nitride film deposited by precursors with different amino ligands. Martin McBriarty, a Materials Scientist, will present on thermal ALE reactants for semiconductor processing, and Ravi Kanjolia will also discuss crystalline gallium nitride deposition on SiO2/Si by RF-biased atomic layer annealing.


Furthermore, Haripin Chandra will participate in the Emerging Materials Session, focusing on EUV lithography materials. Merck's experts will offer valuable insights and share their expertise with the conference attendees, contributing to the advancement of thin film deposition and atomic layer-controlled processes.


Merck's presence at AVS ALD 2023 demonstrates the company's commitment to advancing technology and providing innovative materials solutions. Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with Merck's experts on-site for personalized advice and support. The conference, being held from July 23 to July 26, 2023, in Bellevue, Washington, promises to facilitate knowledge exchange and foster collaborations among scientists and industry professionals in the field of atomic layer-controlled deposition.
