1999 EMC: Publication of Papers

Sponsored by the Electronic Materials Committee of The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS), the 41st Electronic Materials Conference (EMC) will be held June 30-July 2, 1999, at the University of California–Santa Barbara.

When you register to attend the 1999 EMC, your registration fee includes a subscription to Journal of Electronic Materials (JEM), for the year 2000. The journal will include manuscripts of papers presented at this conference. A complete program will be made available for all paid registrants. Those who register for one-day only may order a subscription to JEM on the registration form.

Listed below are three special issue topics of JEM scheduled with manuscript due dates shortly after the conference that might be of particular interest to conference participants. They are: "Compliant and Alternative Substrates," "Quantum Dots," and "III-V Nitrides and SiC."

There will be a special issue of JEM dedicated to recent advances in the area of compliant and alternative substrates. This special issue is scheduled for publication in July 2000. Information for authors may be found on the inside back cover of current issues of the journal. The final date for submission of manuscripts is September 10, 1999. Papers are solicited in the areas of compliant and alternative substrate design, fabrication, and modeling, as well as applications of these substrates to lattice-mismatched epitaxy and devices.

Original manuscripts with original figures suitable for reproduction, two copies of the manuscript, and a completed copyright form should be submitted to one of the following co-editors:

There will be a special issue of JEM dedicated to quantum dots. This special issue is scheduled for publication in April 2000. Information for authors may be found on the inside back cover of current issues of the journal. The final date for submission of manuscripts is September 1, 1999. Papers are solicited in areas of quantum dot formation, processing, device applications, and electrical, optical and structural characterization.

Original manuscripts with original figures suitable for reproduction, two copies of the manuscript, and a completed copyright form should be submitted to one of the co-editors at the addresses below:

Because of the rapid advances in and technical importance of SiC and III-V nitride materials and devices, there will be a special issue of JEM dedicated to these materials. This special issue is scheduled for publication in March 2000. Information for authors may be found on the inside back cover of current issues of the journal. The final date for submission of manuscripts is August 1, 1999. Papers are solicited in areas of epitaxy, processing, device applications, and electrical, optical and structural characterization. This will be the sixth such special issue in JEM. If the trend of increasing number of submissions continues, two special issues may be published, one on III-V Nitrides and one on SiC.
