Abstract
THIN films, a few thousand angstroms thick or less, of various inorganic materials can be formed by the poly-crystalline condensation of the low-pressure vapour on a cool substrate. Such films are gaining importance in optical elements, in electronic microcircuitry, and in devices for information storage.
