Events

The International Workshop on Nitride Semiconductors (IWN2026) will showcase high-impact scientific and technological advances in materials and devices based on group-III nitride semiconductors. Since its inception in Nagoya, Japan in 2000, IWN has been held biennially. Previous workshops have taken place in cities such as Aachen, Pittsburgh, Kyoto, Montreux, Tampa, Sapporo, Wrocław, Orlando, Kanazawa, Berlin, and Hawaii.

IWN2026 will feature a series of focused topical sessions, each dedicated to in-depth discussions on key physical and chemical aspects of nitride semiconductors. These sessions aim to address critical scientific and technological challenges, fostering breakthroughs that will drive the next generation of nitride-based devices. IWN2026 will serve as a vital forum for researchers, engineers, and industry leaders to exchange ideas, build collaborations, and shape the future of the field.

IEEE International Power Electronics and Application Conference (PEAC) is an international symposium for presentation and discussion of the state-of-the-art in power electronics, energy conversion and its applications. The 5th China Power Electronics and Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition & The 29th China Power Supply Society Conference will be held during the PEAC 2026. The worldwide power electronic industry, research, and academia are cordially invited to participate in an array of presentations, tutorials, and social activities for the advancement of science, technology, engineering education, and fellowship.

The IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Microarchitecture® is the premier forum for presenting, discussing, and debating innovative microarchitecture ideas and techniques for advanced computing and communication systems. This symposium brings together researchers in fields related to microarchitecture, compilers, chips, and systems for technical exchange on traditional microarchitecture topics and emerging research areas. The MICRO community has enjoyed a close interaction between academic researchers and industrial designers, and we aim to continue this tradition at MICRO-59. In 2026, MICRO goes to Athens, Greece.

WiPDA provides a forum for device scientists, circuit designers, and application engineers to share technology updates, research findings, experience, and potential applications. WiPDA 2026 will feature technical sessions, tutorials, keynotes from industry and research leaders, as well as an exposition.

The GPOLC2026 will showcase cutting-edge research, breakthrough technologies, and creative ideas that have the potential to shape the future of physics research. Through a series of thought-provoking plenary and keynote speeches, and interactive thematic sessions, we will explore the latest advancements in development of optics, photonics and lasers.

This conference serves as a comprehensive platform for scientific exchange and networking for leading scientists, industry experts, and students, to share cutting-edge research in nanoscience, semiconductor physics, and micro-nanotechnologies.

The CAS 2026 edition will comprise an exciting scientific programme with remarkable plenary speakers, oral and poster presentations, including special sessions for student papers, supplemented with a series of stimulating workshops.

SEMICON West 2026 returns to San Francisco, CA, bringing together the world’s leading innovators, engineers, executives, and decision-makers across the microelectronics supply chain.

Hosted at the iconic Moscone Center, this flagship event is the ultimate platform to explore the technologies, partnerships, and strategies shaping the future of semiconductor manufacturing.

The 29th edition of the European Microwave Week (EuMW 2026) will come to London to continue the annual series of highly successful microwave events that started back in 1998. The annual European Microwave Exhibition, which is by far the largest RF and microwave trade show in Europe, is held in conjunction with the conferences. The exhibition also includes a series of technical seminars and exhibitor workshops describing commercial products and processes.

ECCE is the pivotal international conference and exposition event on the electrical and electromechanical energy conversion field. The ECCE 2026 Conference will feature both industry-driven and application-oriented technical sessions, as well as expositions. ECCE will bring together practicing engineers, researchers, and other professionals for interactive and multidisciplinary discussions on the latest advances in various areas related to energy conversion.
