The latest ECS meeting in Vienna was good for semiconductors. It is not always the case considering “wet” component of the Electrochemical Society being stronger in terms of the membership than its “dry” (read solid-state) counterpart. In Vienna, however, the selection of strong, well established and well attended semiconductor related symposia was serving semiconductor attendees very well.
Other then “classics” such as Semiconductor Cleaning Symposium, Compound Semiconductor Symposium, or High-k Materials and Gate Stacks Symposium, new trends in semiconductor science and engineering were represented by symposia covering Semiconductors and Plasmonics, Organic Semiconductor Materials and Devices and One-Dimensional Nanoscale Electronics and Photonics.
