The International Conference on Electron, Ion and Photon Beam Technology and Nanofabrication (EIPBN), affectionately known as “3-Beams,” is the premier gathering of scientists and engineers who are dedicated to electron, ion and photon lithography, imaging, and analysis; atomically precise fabrication; nanofabrication process technologies; related emerging technologies; and their applications in a broad spectrum of fields. This is the 68^th meeting of the EIPBN, where top researchers from academia, government laboratories, and industry from around the world meet to present and discuss recent trends and future directions in these technologies.
