Submission Deadline TBD
 

Call For Papers

The fourteenth annual IITC is sponsored by the IEEE Electron Devices Society as a premier conference for interconnect technology. The IITC provides a forum for professionals and researchers in semiconductor processing, advanced materials, equipment development, and interconnect systems to present and discuss exciting new science and technology. Contributions from universities, national laboratories, IDMs, foundries, and equipment and materials suppliers are encouraged.

CONFERENCE FORMAT:

Technical Papers: Contributed papers addressing all aspects of interconnect technology (Materials and Unit Processes; Process Integration for Logic or Memory; Process Control/Modeling for Manufacturing; Reliability; TSV and 3D Integration; Optical Interconnect, Interconnect Systems; Packaging; and Novel Materials and Concepts) will be rigorously reviewed. Papers will be selected for either oral or poster presentation.

Regular papers, with 3-page abstracts will be selected for either oral or poster presentation. The Organizing Committee explicitly solicits contributions for new areas: 3D, memory, manufacturing, packaging, optical interconnect and new materials/concepts.
In addition, papers with 2-page abstracts will be selected for a special poster session for New Engineers and Students.
Exhibits/Seminars: New products, processes, analytical methods and materials will be exhibited at the conference. Supplier seminars will be held on the 1st and 2nd evenings of the conference. Please contact the Conference Headquarters for details.

Short Course:

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS:

Deadline: TBD

NOTE: Submission of an abstract for review and subsequent acceptance is considered by the committee as an agreement that the work will not be placed in the public domain by the author prior to the conference. Accepted papers or significant portions of the work may not be placed in the public domain prior to the conference. Violation will be grounds for automatic withdrawal of the paper by the conference committee. Inclusion of materials from publications by other authors may be done only with their expressed permission and with a citation associated with the reproduced material. Appropriate company or government clearance must be obtained by the authors before submission and an IEEE Copyright Form will be required. Submitted papers will not be returned to the authors.

Oral presentations will be 20 minutes in length followed by a 5 minute question period. Poster authors will be required to be at their presentations for a 2-hour period on the day of their poster display.

Papers must be submitted electronically -- Details coming soon. Do not email or mail hard copies to the conference office. Please read the paper preparation and submission guidelines before preparing your paper. In order for your paper to receive a full review, the following information MUST be entered on the website along with your submission:

Title of paper
First author name with complete mailing address, phone, fax and email address
Names, affiliations, city state or country of additional authors
Person to whom correspondence should be sent, if other than the first author
Identification as invited or student paper
Suggestions for up to three potential conference sessions for the paper. See Subjects of Interest
ACCEPTED PAPERS WILL BE PRINTED IN THE PROCEEDINGS WITHOUT THE OPPORTUNITY FOR FURTHER CHANGE. Papers length inclusive of all illustrations, charts and tables must be 3 pages for regular oral/poster sessonis, and 2 pages for special poster sessions for New Engineers and Students, respectively. Contact information for each author must be listed on the first page of the paper: name, affiliation, city, state or country. Authors of accepted papers will be notified by TBD.

Note: Accepted papers may be used for publicity purposes and portions of these papers may be quoted in pre-conference magazine articles and also via the Web. If this is NOT acceptable, authors must indicate this on the Paper Submission site when submitting the paper for review.
