10th International Symposium on Control of Semiconductor Interface
International Conference on Silicon Epitaxy
International SiGe Technology and Device Meeting
The 10th International Symposium on Control of Semiconductor Interfaces (ISCSI-X), the International Conference on Silicon Epitaxy and International SiGe Technology and Device Meeting (ICSI/ISTDM 2025) will be held in Yokohama-shi, Kanagawa, Japan. Aiming for global collaboration dedicated to semiconductor interfaces, ISCSI series first commenced in Karuizawa, Japan, 1993. Continuing the series in 1996, 1999, 2002 in Karuizawa, in 2007 in Hachiouji, Japan, in 2013 in Fukuoka, Japan, in 2016, 2022 in Nagoya, Japan, and in 2019 in Sendai, Japan. ISCSI has been established itself as a platform where we discuss research results on semiconductor interfaces, exchange information, and promote them for future semiconductor science and technology.
Previous ICSI conferences were held in 1st: Miyagi Zao, Japan, 1999; 2nd: Strasbourg, France, 2001; 3rd: Santa Fe, USA, 2003; 4th: Awaji Island, Japan, 2005; 5th: Marseille, France, 2007; 6th: Los Angeles, USA, 2009, 7th: Leuven, Belgium, 2011, 8th: Kyushu, Japan, 2013; 9th: Montreal, Canada, 2015. Also, previous ISTDM conferences were in 1st: Nagoya, Japan, 2003; 2nd: Frankfurt (Oder); 3rd: Germany, 2004, 4th: Princeton, USA, 2006; 6th: Hsinchu, Taiwan; 2008, 7th: Stockholm, Sweden; 2010, 8th: Berkeley, USA, 2012; 9th: Singapore, 2014; 10th: Nagoya, Japan, 2016. Then, both meetings have been joined as ISTDM/ICSI, those were held in Potsdam, Germany, 2018; Como, Italy, 2023. We have been continuing these meetings to discuss the group-IV semiconductor engineering technologies through materials science to device applications.
