From June 3 to 6, 2024, the world's most important conference in the field of power semiconductor devices will take place in Bremen. The event, which only comes to Europe every four years, will be hosted by the Institute for Electrical Drives, Power Electronics and Devices (IALB) at the University of Bremen.
"We are of course incredibly proud to be hosting this important conference this year," says engineer Professor Dr.-Ing. Nando Kaminski, who brought the event to Bremen. The "ISPSD2024 – 36th International Symposium on Power Semiconductor Devices and ICs", as it is officially titled, will bring 500 of the leading scientists in power semiconductor research to the Hanseatic city.
Important Components of Modern Electronics
Power semiconductors are extremely important components in modern power electronics. Without them, essential controls and circuits in industries such as drive technology, energy supply, measuring and medical technology, telecommunications, automotive engineering, aviation, and rail transport would be unthinkable today. .The global market for power semiconductors is growing rapidly and is currently worth more than 40 billion US dollars.
The ISPSD conference is held annually on a rotating basis in Japan, North America, Greater China, and Europe – for example, it took place in Vancouver in 2022 and Hong Kong in 2023. Since it was first held in Tokyo in 1988, it has become the leading conference in the field of power semiconductor devices. In 2024, the conference will once again be held on the European continent. As General Chairman, Professor Kaminski is the organizer. The initial preparatory planning began four years ago during the last European ISPSD, and the final organizational processes have recently been moving at full speed.
Greetings from Senator and Vice President
The Vice President for Research and Transfer at the University of Bremen, Michal Kučera, will give welcoming remarks at the opening in the Glocke at 8:30 a.m. on June 3, and Bremen's Senator for Science, Kathrin Moosdorf, will speak at the reception in the Upper Town Hall on June 3 (7 p.m.). At the opening ceremony, Thomas M. Coughlin, President of the US electrical engineering association IEEE, which boasts over 400,000 members (equivalent to the German VDE), will also present the Andrew S. Grove Award to Professor Tsunenobu Kimoto from Kyoto University in Japan.
The annual IEEE Andrew S. Grove Award is one of the highest awards that can be given to outstanding individuals in the field of semiconductor devices and technology, covering all semiconductor areas in microelectronics, optoelectronics, sensor technology, high-frequency technology, and power electronics.
On Tuesday, June 4, 2024 (5:30 p.m., Glocke) there will be a panel discussion on the topic of "Women in Engineering." It will be moderated by Sarah Rugen, a former research assistant at the IALB.
The conference will be held in English.
