Abstract:

This symposium focuses on recent advances and developments in semiconductors and microelectronics and their manufacturing processes. Topics of interest include devices in memory and data storage, quantum information science, emerging materials such as hybrid materials, organics and hetero-structures, such as 2D hetero-interfaces, for flexible electronics and optoelectronics. Contributions that connect device design/fabrication, defects and interfaces to structure and device performance are of particular interest.

The goal is to create an international and interdisciplinary forum for researchers from industry, academia, and national laboratories to exchange ideas and foster collaborations. Board areas of interest include: the modeling and simulation to predict device properties; Role of defects, interface; synthesis and manufacturing process for integration; Specific devices of interest are memory and data storage devices, memristive devices, transistors, detectors and flexible electronics.
