Abstract

International Conference on Solid State Devices and Materials (SSDM) is one of the most traditional international conferences held in Japan. SSDM covers a broad spectrum of topics related to solid state devices and materials, and 15 areas are set up for discussion. The number of papers submitted has exceeded 700, and a special issue of the Japanese Journal of Applied Physics (JJAP) focusing on this conference is scheduled to be published. Please contribute your papers or participate in the poster session. Exhibition booths will also be set up for companies and agencies that provide devices, technologies and information relevant to the research and development efforts of the approximately 1,000 conference participants expected to attend. SSDM covers a broad spectrum of topics related to solid state devices and materials: Advanced LSI Processing & Materials Science, Advanced Interconnect and 3D Integration/ Materials and Characterization, CMOS Devices / Device Physics, Advanced Memory Technology, Advanced Circuits and Systems, Compound Semiconductor Electron Devices & Related Technologies, Photonic Devices and Related Technologies, Physics and Applications of Novel Functional Devices and Materials, Organic Materials Science, Device Physics, and Applications, Sensors and Materials for Biology, Chemistry and Medicine, Spintronics Materials and Devices, Applications of Nanotubes, Nanowires, and Graphene, Power Devices and Materials, Photovoltaic Materials and Devices.
