Preface

Thin films with and without plasticizers defined by Tian et al. (2020), usually known as thin and/or elastic polymers, are indispensable in technology. Homo or hetero structures based on thin films have attracted great attention with the use of different chemical or physical production techniques. In this way, advanced functional device design and processes up to the atomic level can be achieved at all length scales.

The idea of writing this book developed as a result of interest in the fields of electrochemical production and applications. The book is divided into four sections on the production and characterization of thin films, electrochemical applications, electrodeposition, and magnetic applications.

This book was created with the help of the co-editors Assistant Professor Emin Yakar and Associate Professor Irmak Karaduman Er. We express our thanks to all authors, referees, and advisors for their help and support in making the publication of this book possible.
