First Announcement and Call For Papers

Sponsored by
The IEEE Electron Devices Society
and the Japan Society of Applied Physics

Hilton Hawaiian Village
Honolulu, HI
June 13 - 15, 2000

The scope of the 2000 Symposium on VLSI Technology, covers all aspects of VLSI Technology, such as:

new functional devices including quantum effect devices with possible VLSI implementation

materials innovation for MOSFET and interconnect in VLSI

advanced lithography and fine patterning technologies for high density VLSI

process/device modeling and VLSI manufacturing control

packaging and reliability of VLSI devices

theories and fundamentals related to the above devices

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
Prospective authors must submit summaries in the format of two pages of camera-ready copy. Those interested in submitting papers should contact the Secretariat as early as possible to receive an author's Kit. The abstracts are to be submitted in final form and, if accepted, will be published as submitted. The two-page summary and 50 DOUBLE-SIDED copies are to be sent to Widerkehr and Associates (North America and Europe) or to the Business Center for Academic Societies Japan (all countries except North America and Europe).
