WUPP for Wide Bandgap Semiconductors, 2017
Supported by RCUPP for WBGDs (JSME)



ABOUT WUPP2017
Workshop on Ultra-Precision Processing for Wide Band Gap Semiconductors, 2017 (WUPP-2017) will be held in Monterey, California, USA, on Nov. 5-Nov. 7.
This workshop will contribute to the further advancement of wide bandgap semiconductor devices through mixing researchers in wide bandgap semiconductors and ultra-precision processing. This workshop takes over the successful international meeting of WUPP-2013 in USA, WUPP-2014 in UK, WUPP-2015 in Japan, and WUPP-2016 in Taiwan.
As the fifth international workshop, we will discuss themes related to III-Nitrides, silicon carbide, and diamond, and their precision processing.
The organizing committees plan to provide an opportunity for researchers in semiconductors and ultra-precision processing to interact and discuss various issues related to these important wide bandgap materials from bulk preparation to device manufacturing for next–generation-device realization.
The workshop is "by invitation only" and is limited to about 60 participants to maximize the interaction.
SCOPE & TOPICS
As important topics to be discussed, the organizing committee will plan the following sessions;
-
Bulk crystal growth of GaN, SiC, and Diamond
-
Processing of bulk crystals for wafering
-
Device epitaxy and processing for LEDs, LDs, and power electronics applications, etc.
-
Marketing and further featured technologies
