Electronic Materials Committee

www.tms.org/EMC.html

The Premier Annual Forum on the Preparation and Characterization of Electronic Materials for 50 Years

June 25-27, 2008 • Santa Barbara, California

For 50 years, the Electronic Materials Conference (EMC) has been presenting research and developments to advance the field as well as our attendees, who include:

ScientistsEngineersProfessorsResearchersTechniciansResearch and Development ManagersProduct ManagersStudents

You are invited to participate in this year’s event by submitting an abstract for any of the more than 30 topics being presented.

About the TopicsElectronic materials are defined as relating to, produced or operated by the controlled flow of electrons through a semiconductor, gas or free space along with those relating to devices, systems or circuits that employ components such as vacuum tubes, integrated circuits or transistors in their design. In practice, the field is much broader as we have tried to capture in the topics covered.

See the following pages for information on the technical topics and submit your abstract before February 1, 2008.

Information for Prospective Authors

Abstract Submission

ABSTRACT DEADLINE: FEBRUARY 1, 2008

How to Submit an AbstractSubmit your 450-word abstract by February 1, 2008, using CMS-Plus, the online TMS conference management system, at http://cmsplus.tms.org. Conference organizers receive electronic notification of abstract submissions upon entry. Log in to CMS-Plus to begin.

Author RequirementsAbstracts submitted must reveal and demonstrate reasonable scientific content. Do not submit abstracts describing work that has not been released for public disclosure.Students should clearly mark abstracts as “Student Paper” and must also satisfy format guidelines.Authors are expected to present their papers in person at the conference. If an author must be absent or withdraw a paper, the author must notify the program chair well in advance.

Extended AbstractA one-page, additional abstract is also required to assist organizers in considering the material planned for presentation. The additional page (referred to as “extended abstract” in CMS-Plus) should be uploaded as a Microsoft Word or Portable Document Format (PDF) attachment when your initial abstract is submitted. (Only the required 450-word abstract will be printed in the program book).

“Late News” PapersLate news papers will be considered between February 2 and June 2, 2008. They should be submitted online at http://cmsplus.tms.org by selecting “Late News.” The same formatting instructions for abstract submission apply.

Questions about submitting your abstract? Contact TMS.Christina Raabe Eck, Technical Programming and Publications Manager(724) 776-9000, ext. 212 • (800) 759-4TMS • raabe@tms.org

Student Awards and AssistanceThe top 5 percent of student presentations, as voted upon by the EMC committee, will receive the EMC Best Student Paper Award at the 2009 conference. Papers are judged on both written abstract and oral presentation.

The EMC committee has allocated funds to assist students to attend the 2008 conference in order to make oral presentations. Those wishing to be considered to receive funds should e-mail Robert Biefeld at rmbiefe@sandia.gov no later than Monday, June 2, 2008.

Publication of PapersSelected technical sessions will be published in the Journal of Electronic Materials. You also are strongly encouraged to submit manuscripts of your work to the journal. Details on eligibility and manuscript submission will be included in the EMC advance program and are available on the Web at http://www.tms.org/jem.html.
