Atoms to devices: R&D workshop

As the cost and complexity of semiconductor design and manufacturing rises, there is a greater emphasis than ever on the development of 'More than Moore' materials, devices and processes. Through this approach, new product innovation and functionality becomes possible for a wide range of organisations within the industry.

The aim of this workshop is to give an overview of the research status and potential of important new materials that are suitable for the development of low-dimensional devices and structures. These include materials such as GaN, Metal Oxides including ZnO, III-Vs and Graphene.

The aim is to give industry professionals a general overview of progress and opportunity, and to bring the academic and industrial communities together to better understand future material and device integration, manufacturing and product innovation challenges and opportunities.
