Paper
preparation and submission
Papers presented at the Workshop will be included
in a NATO-series book titled "Fundamental Aspects of
Ultrathin Dielectrics". Please bring a manuscript of your
paper to St.Petersburg. Papers will be reviewed during the
meeting. The book will be published by Kluwer Acedemic Publishers
shortly after the Workshop. We ask you to limit your paper to 10
- 15 (camera-ready) pages. Since the goal of the workshop is to
review recent progress in ultrathin dielectrics studies and to
identify priority directions for future basic research in the
field, please: (i) try to summarize in your paper recent
significant (in your opinion) results in your particular area of
interests; and (ii) "speculate" on future
"needs" (i.e. problems which would be important to
solve in the near future).
Please also bring a Transfer Copyright form and
Data Base Entry Sheet which have been mailed to you.
