For over 25 years, Sensors Expo & Conference has been the leading event in North America, exclusively focusing on sensors and sensor-integrated systems,  The event is known as one of the world’s largest and most important gatherings of engineers and scientists involved in the development and deployment of sensor systems.

Our in-depth conference program features the world’s leading authorities, who will examine the most up-to-date innovations in a carefully designed program. Save months of time researching your best options by spending three information-packed days at Sensors Expo, examining solutions for your toughest sensing challenges. Take a deep dive into sensors with our Pre-Conference Workshops and attend more than 48 technical sessions in our comprehensive conference program, to help you find the solutions for your present challenges while preparing you for the future.

This year’s cutting-edge tracks and topics are listed below. Click each topic to view the sessions or view the Conference-At-A-Glance.

The IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society’s 2012 International Microwave Symposium (IMS2012) will be held on June 17-22, 2012 in Montréal, Canada as the centerpiece of Microwave Week 2012. IMS2012 offers technical sessions, interactive forums, plenary and panel sessions, workshops, short courses, industrial exhibits, application seminars, historical exhibits, and a wide array of other technical and social activities including a guest program. Co-located with IMS2012 are the RFIC symposium (www.rfic2012.org) and the ARFTG conference (www.arftg.org), which comprise the Microwave Week 2012 technical program

SEMICON West is the flagship annual event for the global microelectronics industry. It is the premier event for the display of new products and technologies for microelectronics design and manufacturing, featuring technologies from across the microelectronics supply chain, from electronic design automation, to device fabrication (wafer processing), to final manufacturing (assembly, packaging, and test).

More than semiconductors, SEMICON West is also showcase for emerging markets and technologies born from the microelectronics industry, including micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), photovoltaics (PV), flexible electronics and displays, nano-electronics, solid state lighting (LEDs), and related technologies.

Speaking Opportunities/Call for Papers

As the premier annual event for the global semiconductor and related technology industries, SEMICON West, along with its co-located and partner events, is a respected platform for the presentation and discovery of the latest trends and ideas in semiconductor manufacturing, photovoltaics, MEMS, LEDs, printed and flexible electronics, nano-electronics, and more.

Invitation for Presenters

SEMI welcomes industry input and suggestions from potential speakers. Extreme Electronics and the TechXPOTs are excellent venues to present a new technology. The most successful talks typically update the SEMICON audience on new developments, with convincing data that demonstrates that the product or technology is significant and real.

Deadline for submission is March 15, 2012. You will be notified status of your submission by May 1, 2012

It’s an incredibly intriguing time for our industry, which is mulling over many important questions.

Insights into all these important questions will be given at CS Europe 2012.

Speakers at this two-day meeting include leading analysts in the compound semiconductor sector, representatives of the biggest GaAs foundries in the world, and leaders of the top LED and nitride laser manufacturers. On top of that, there is a session dedicated to the development of III-Vs on CMOS that includes speakers from Intel, SEMATECH and Imec.
