Let $p$ be a rational prime and $q>1$ a $p$-power integer. Drinfeld modular forms are rigid analytic functions on the Drinfeld upper half plane over $\mathbb F_q((1/t))$ satisfying a similar transformation condition and holomorphy condition to elliptic modular forms. Though numerical computations suggest that they have interesting $\wp$-adic structures, we still have poor understanding of them.
In this talk, I will explain how to construct $\wp$-adic continuous families of Drinfeld eigenforms of finite slope using Teitelbaum's description of Drinfeld cuspforms via the Steinberg module, and also what we can say about slope zero Drinfeld cuspforms.
