Acta Materialia Gold Medal Forum: Frontiers in Thin-Film Epitaxy and Nanostructured Materials
Forum sponsored by Kopin Corporation
Forum Chairs
Amit Goyal, Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Bill Appleton, University of Florida
Sungho Jin, University of California, San Diego
Justin Schwartz, North Carolina State University
The forum addressed critical issues related to synthesis and processing, defects and interfaces, atomic and nanoscale characterization, structure-property correlations, and modeling of nanostructured materials. The issues involved with thin films and layered structures, self-assembly processing, control of defects and interfaces, orientation control and epitaxy across the misfit scale, and stability of nanostructures need to be addressed from a materials science perspective. The same is true for bulk structures, innovative processing routes, control of dislocations and grain boundaries, the role of twinning, size-dependent mechanical properties, and the stability of nanostructures, which also need to be considered from that viewpoint. These issues are crucial for the development of test device structures and the transition of materials science for the benefit of society.

The forum is dedicated to the seminal research contributions of Jagdish (Jay) Narayan, winner of the 2011 Acta Materialia Gold Medal in the field of materials science and engineering, and to his leadership in materials science worldwide through professional societies and the National Science Foundation. Professor Narayan is the John C.C. Fan Family Distinguished Chair Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering in the College of Engineering at North Carolina State University. He also holds the Distinguished Visiting Scientist appointment at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
