Tommi Kääriäinen is a researcher at the Advanced Surface Technology Research Laboratory (ASTRa L) in Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT), Finland. He has over nine years of experience in thin film deposition and analytical techniques. He has especially focused on atomic layer deposition (ALD) at low temperatures and recently on spatial and roll-to-roll ALD. David Cameron received his BSc in electrical and electronic engineering from the University of Glasgow in 1972. In 2004, he joined LUT as Professor of Material Technology and Director of ASTRa L. His research career has been in the area of thin film deposition and since joining ASTRa L, his work has focused on ALD. He has also worked on molecular beam epitaxy, plasma chemical vapour deposition, magnetron sputtering, and sol-gel deposition. Marja-Leena Kääriäinen has conducted ALD research for over 10 years. Her focus has been on the growth and structure of nanoscale metal oxide films. She has a particular interest in the photoactivity, photocatalytic activity, and antibacterial properties of ALD-grown thin films. Her background is in chemical engineering, which she studied at LUT and Michigan Technological University. Currently, she is a researcher at ASTRa L. Arthur Sherman has 60 years of industrial experience, which includes almost 20 years with General Electric, seven years on the corporate staff of RCA, several years at Applied Materials, and six years at Varian Associates. He earned a master”s degree in aeronautical engineering at Princeton University and a Ph D at the University of Pennsylvania. He has published extensively, including approximately 50 research papers published in archive journals and three scientific monographs.
