The 6th International Workshopn on
High Frequency Micromagnetic Devices and Materials (MMDM6)

Scope of the Workshop

The 6th International workshop on High Frequency Micromagnetic Devices and Materials (MMDM6) provides an opportunity to bridge semiconductor microelectronics technology and applied ferromagnetic thin-film technology where a number of outstanding new research topics and industrial applications should be awaiting. Along with the regular topics, this year we extend our interest to wide variety of high frequency materials/phenomena/applications, including left handed meta materials and "beyond 10GHz world." Let's get together to find out a new direction of RF magnetics.

Topics (suggestive, rather than restrictive)
- RF magnetic materials
     * thin films, polymer-embedded nano particulate materials, RF ferrite, etc
     * soft materials, non-reciprocal materials, left handed meta materials, etc
- Resonance in magnetic materials
- Characterization of RF/dynamic properties
- Microfabrication and packaging techniques
- Micro power converters
- Magnetic RF MEMS
- Integrated inductors/transformers
- Transmission line devices
- Electromagnetic noise suppressor, High signal integrity applications
- Sensors
- Others

This workshop is officially sponsored by IEEE Magnetics Society and we will publish the proceedings in IEEE Transactions on Magnetics after the workshop up to 30 transaction pages in total through peer review process. Details will be notified to the authors separately.

• The Workshop will consist of invited talks(40-60 min) and contributed talks(nominally 20 min). Interested authors are encouraged to submit (a) digest(s) for the contributed session maybe in early November. Detailed instruction is here.
• All the digests will be subjected to review process by the program committee. Nevertheless, it remains as a policy of this workshop to accept all the digests unless normal day-time slot overflows.
• Authors will be notified the results of review process and completed session schedule by February 1st , 2008(tentative).
