About the Division

The mission of the AVS Applied Surface Science Division is to provide a forum for research and education in the preparation, characterization, modification, and utilization of surfaces and interfaces in practical applications. The current vision for implementation of the mission statement includes promotion of science and technology relevant to:

  • understanding solid/gas, solid/solid, and solid/liquid interfaces of practical importance
     
  • methods for characterizing these interfaces for composition, bonding, topology and structure
     
  • modification of interfaces to optimize the stability, reactivity or other properties of components and/or devices
