2nd International Symposium
on

High Frequency Micromagnetic Devices
and Materials

April 4th, 2003

Photonics Center, Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA

Last updated on 26 March 2003.

Scope of the Symposium

Welcome to the new technology area of High Frequency Micromagnetic Devices and Materials. This area bridges semiconductor microelectronics technology and applied ferromagnetic thin-film technology where a number of outstanding new research topics and industrial huge applications should be waiting. The feature of this topical symposium is to focuses on the RF technology from magnetic materials development, RF or high speed characterization, microfabrication techniques, analysis and applied devices & systems. RF magnetic thin film materials and their application to IT devices will be the main topic of the workshop including the applications to integrated inductor, transmission lines, LC circuits, etc. Please get together to find out a new direction of the global integration technology.
