各位參加 ICMCTF2008台灣伙伴 您好:

今年台灣地區參與 ICMCTF2008 會議與過去幾年一樣非常踴躍,台灣鍍膜科技協會亦協助27位伙伴成行。預估台灣與會朋友應超過50人以上。 在此難得的機會,為了聚集相關台灣伙伴,藉此在國外開會之機會互相認識與交流,由本會數位薄膜科技先進翁明壽教授與汪大永校長提議在大會開會期間舉辦聚餐活動。 聚餐交流對象為所有台灣地區與會之教授、學生及朋友。

預定時間:4/28(一) 下午5:30
集合地點:大會地點廣場 Lion fountain court
聚餐地點:預計在大會附近之Shopping mall 的餐廳 (步行約5分鐘)
歡迎相聚 並祝
旅途愉快
Note: 因未能一一知悉所有與會伙伴之e-mail, 歡迎大家告訴大家

  2008 International Symposium on the Physics of Nitride Semiconductors 【01/10/2008】

  In conjunction with the annual meeting of the Physical Society of Republic of China (January 28-30, 2008) held at the National Chiao-Tung University, Taiwan-AVS is pleased to announce a special session "2008 International Symposium on the Physics of Nitride Semiconductors" during 29th and 30th. There will be nearly 15 renowned invited international and local speakers. This is a fantastic meeting and I wish all Taiwan-AVS members will come join this great event

The schedule of the Physical society meeting

The schedule of the Nitride Symposium

A short description of the special session is the following.

Scope:Group-III nitride semiconductors (AlN, GaN, InN, and their alloys) have been studied extensively due to the wide band gaps in GaN (3.4 eV) and AlN (6.2 eV), which make them suitable for a variety of applications in optoelectronics and electronics such as blue and ultraviolet LEDs, laser diodes, and high-temperature/high-power field-effect transistors. Recently, indium nitride (InN) has also attracted much attention because of the newly discovered narrow band gap (~0.65 eV) and superior electronic transport properties.

  Based on these discoveries, it has been predicted that InN and its alloys with GaN can play a major role in the future developments of high-efficiency solar cells, high-speed electronics, near-infrared optoelectronics, full-color display, and solid-state lighting. However, a full understanding of InN-related fundamental physical properties is still lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this symposium is intended to bridge this present gap in understanding the fundamental properties of InN and related InGaN alloys.

  Especially, the following topics will be included:

Growth and processing of InN and high-In-content InGaN alloys: films, heterostructures, and nanostructures (quantum dots, nanorods, nanowires, etc.)

Electronic properties of InN and InGaN surfaces (polar and nonpolar) and III-nitride heterojunctions: surface electron accumulation and heterojunction band alignments.

Optical properties and ultrafast phenomena in InN and InGaN.

Doping issues in InN and InGaN: p-type doping difficulties.

III-nitride device applications and future prospects.
