energy production, environmental management, transportation, communication, computation, and education. As the twenty-first century unfolds, nanotechnology's impact on the health, wealth, and security of the world's people is expected to be at least as significant as the combined influences in this century of antibiotics, the integrated circuit, and human-made polymers. Dr. Neal Lane, Advisor to the President for Science and Technology and former National Science Foundation (NSF) director, stated at a Congressional hearing in April 1998, "If I were asked for an area of science and engineering that will most likely produce the breakthroughs of tomorrow, I would point to nanoscale science and engineering. " Recognizing this potential, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) have issued a joint memorandum to Federal agency heads that identifies nanotechnology as a research priority area for Federal investment in fiscal year 2001. This report charts "Nanotechnology Research Directions," as developed by the Interagency W orking Group on Nano Science, Engineering, and Technology (IWGN) of the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC). The report incorporates the views of leading experts from government, academia, and the private sector. It reflects the consensus reached at an IWGN-sponsored workshop held on January 27-29, 1999, and detailed in contributions submitted thereafter by members of the V. S. science and engineering community. (See Appendix A for a list of contributors.

This book, the eighth in a popular series from MRS, features the latest technical information on ferroelectric thin films from an international mix of academia, industry and government organizations. Recent results for DRAM and FERAM devices, as well as enhancements in material performance for these applications, are presented. Significant advances in understanding leakage current, frequency dependence of the coercive field, hydrogen annealing effects, piezoelectric constants, and domain switching responses are highlighted. The development of ferroelectric thin films for piezoelectric applications are also reviewed, as are improved film-fabrication procedures including chemical vapor deposition and chemical solution deposition. Topics include: BST thin films and DRAM; integration and electrodes; Bi-based thin-film ferroelectrics; Pb-based thin-film ferroelectrics; fundamental properties of thin-film ferroelectrics; ferroelectric gate materials and devices; and piezoelectric, pyro-electric and capacitor devices and novel processing strategies.

Epitaxial growth has always been a marriage of convenience between film and substrate. More and more frequently, however, it is impractical to use the same material for both film and substrate because it is not available as large single crystals, it is prohibitively expensive, or its properties are ill-suited for the intended application. To meet these challenges, many strategies have been pursued to achieve highly oriented or single-crystal thin films via epitaxy. Crystalline films have been mechanically bonded to other materials to form composite substrates. Crystals have been cut and rewelded, patterned and regrown, buffer layered and repolished. Each strategy has met with fundamental challenges including lattice mismatch, chemical incompatibility, differences in thermal expansion, and structural dissimilarity. This book, first published in 2000, focuses on developments in novel substrate engineering which enable improved epitaxy. Topics include: biaxially textured substrates for high-Tc-coated conductors; surfaces for oxide epitaxy; wafer bonding and lift off; lattice mismatch engineering; substrate engineering and solid-phase recrystallization and epitaxy.
