Thin films as a special type of matter have been in the focus of theoretical and experimental research for many years. Advances in thin film have enabled a wide range of technological breakthroughs in all areas of our live: energy, electronics, constructions, medicine, communications, transport, etc.  Many fundamental and technological questions related to thin films have not yet been resolved. Workshop on Thin Films: Growth, Characterization, Application (WTF2022) will be devoted to reviews and discussions of the most important, modern, relevant areas of physics, chemistry, and technology of thin films.
