Summary:

<P>This book provides the first comprehensive and in-depth overview of the current fundamental understanding of metal-induced crystallization and further elucidates how to employ this process in various technologies, including in thin-film solar cells and display technologies. It aims to give the reader a thorough perspective of metal-induced crystallization and thereby stimulate the development of novel crystalline-semiconductor-based technologies. </P>
