Kick-off for Semiconductors


Save the date! More information and registration coming soon.

Join us for the theme kick-off on 26-27 February 2026!


When: 26-27 February, 2026

Where: at LINXS (LINXS, The Loop, Rydbergs torg 4, Lund), workshop room on the 3 floor.


About

Advanced semiconductor technology is crucial for meeting several of our most urgent environmental and societal challenges. Large efforts are ongoing towards the development of improved materials and novel semiconductor device concepts. X-ray- and neutron-based characterization offers key possibilities for the characterization of semiconductor materials and for an in-depth understanding of the physical and chemical effects involved in semiconductor technology.

With this theme, the aim is to strengthen interaction and collaboration between experts in synchrotron-based material characterization and semiconductor device development, from both academia and industry, in Sweden and Europe. The Theme aims to contribute to novel semiconductor functionality by exploring fundamental material aspects, to initiate novel synchrotron-based research on semiconductors, and to educate the next generation of researchers from academia and industry in combining semiconductor device development with advanced characterization, including X-rays and neutrons.

For all these aims, Semiconductors seeks to establish structures and collaborations that extend and develop their full impact even after the duration of the theme.
