Emerging Directions in Sculptured-Thin-Film-Research — •Akhlesh Lakhtakia — Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802-6812, USA

Sculptured thin films are assemblies of shaped, parallel, identical nanowires generally grown by vapor deposition techniques on substrates [1]. Their optical applications have advanced significantly during the last five years, but other applications have not progressed beyond the embryonic stage. In this lecture, several new directions in STF research shall be presented. These include: (a) STFs with transverse architectures; (b) deposition of polymeric STFs by replamineform, multibeam lithographic, and mixed vapor deposition techniques; (c) growth of bioscaffolds on STFs; (d) STF light emitters; (e) energetic STFs; and (f) electrically controlled STFs and punctuated STFs.
