This award will enable collaborative research between Professor                 Christopher Wronski of Pennsylvania State University and Professor              M. Hirose of Hiroshima University, Japan.  They will study                      amorphous silicon based materials with the following four areas of              focus:  1) the fabrication of amorphous superlattices with sharp                interfaces and low defect densities; 2) systematic material                     characterization; 3) modelling of amorphous semiconductor                       superlattice properties; and 4) materials design and device                     applications.                                                                                                                                                   The expertise and facilities brought together by this program will              provide a powerful arsenal of techniques for establishing and                   understanding the synthesis of ultrathin multilayer semiconductor               superlattices and unraveling the role of interfaces in these                    materials.  Such understanding should promote application of these              materials in a wide variety of solid state and optoelectric                     devices.  The Center for Electronic Materials and Devices,                      Pennsylvania State University and the Research Center for                       Integrated Systems, Hiroshima University will provide complementary             expertise and experimental capabilities to this project.
