14th Korean Conference on Semiconductors

Dongbu Electronics confirmed that it will host the 14th Korean Conference on Semiconductors to be held February 8-9 at the Lotte Hotel on Jeju Island. More than 1, 500 semiconductor experts, including a large delegation from South Korea, are expected to participate as 511 technical papers are presented, among which the subject of "Nano Sensors" and "CMOS Image Sensors" will be reviewed.

Soo-Young Oh, director of IT Convergence & Components Lab of ETRI, will lead the plenary session at this year's Conference with "The Story of Moore, " in which he will look beyond Moore's Law to review the current and future progress of "Nano Sensors" and MEMS. He will be followed by Dr. Toru Maekawa from Toyo University who will discuss "Creation of New Bio-Nano Devices via Self-assembly, " a next-generation convergence technology.

According to Dongbu Electronics, 511 papers will be discussed in 12 sub-divisions in two groups (Device/Process Technology Group and Design Technology Group). "Dark Characteristics Enhancing Methods of CMOS Image Sensors" will be one of the timely topics addressed.

On the opening day of the Conference, a "Chip Design Contest" will be held, during which 28 teams will compete. Major Korean universities, including Seoul National University and KAIST, will participate and demonstrate semiconductor chips produced by semiconductor foundries. Goal of the contest is to encourage the sharing of technology and information in both semiconductor and system design.

During the second day of the Conference, a "Rump Session" will provide opportunities to discuss semiconductor technology forecasts and development strategies for both the memory and mobile communication markets.
