IOP Conferences

Forthcoming Institute Conferences

Date: Wed, 19 November 2008
Venue: East Midlands Conference Centre, Nottingham
Organised by: the Semiconductor Physics Group of the Institute of Physics

Introduction

This one-day course is aimed primarily at new researchers working in the fields of experimental semiconductor physics and semiconductor technology. Much of the content will also be of interest to the wider condensed matter research community and to established researchers wanting to update their knowledge of the latest techniques. The talks will emphasize practical aspects of semiconductor research such as device fabrication, choice of equipment and measurement techniques. Subjects will include: structural characterisation, semiconductor processing, scanning probe methods, low noise electrical measurements and optical measurement techniques.
