Workshop on Frontiers in Electronics (WOFE-09) To be Held in Rincon, Puerto Rico on December 13-16, 2009

计划中的WOFE-09研讨会是1997年1月在西班牙特内里费岛Puerto de La Cruz举行的WOFE-97研讨会、5月31日至6月4日在法国Villard de Lans举行的WOFE-99研讨会、12月18日至22日在维尔京群岛圣克罗伊岛举行的WOFE-2002研讨会、12月18日至22日在阿鲁巴岛举行的WOFE-04研讨会和墨西哥科苏梅尔举行的WOFE-07研讨会的后续研讨会。研讨会的目的是汇集电子设备和电路研究与开发前沿的顶尖科学家和工程师。超低功耗数字电子学、微波功率电路和光电子学已经成为当今电子技术的基础。然而，它们出现在传统上分开的领域，并且仍然主要由在不同领域受过训练的专家从事。本次研讨会的智力价值在于促进前沿研究技术的思想和信息，回顾纳米电子学和微电子领域最新和令人兴奋的突破，联系最近和预期进展的潜在物理机制，并就未来趋势和方向，市场吸引力和必要的政策和基础设施变化交换意见。更广泛的影响将体现在发表《论文集》上，其中将包括在wafe -09上发表的最佳论文，经过同行评审和编辑，并有详细的编辑介绍，以及促进研究生和年轻科学家的参与。在过去，以前的一些WOFE论文集被Word Scientific， Inc.列为畅销书。

The planned Workshop WOFE-09 is a sequel to WOFE-97 held January 1997 in Puerto de La Cruz, Tenerife, Spain, WOFE-99 held May 31 - June 4 in Villard de Lans, France, WOFE-2002 in St. Croix, Virgin Islands, and WOFE-04 held on December 18-22 in Aruba, and WOFE-07 held in Cozumel, MexicoThe objective of the workshop is to bring together leading scientists and engineers who are at the frontiers of electronic device and circuit research and development. Ultra low power digital electronics, microwave power circuits, and optoelectronics have become the foundation of today's electronics technology. Yet, they emerged from traditionally separated fields and are still largely pursued by specialists trained in different areas.The intellectual merit of the proposed workshop will be in facilitating of ideas and information in cutting edge technologies at frontiers of research and in reviewing the most recent and exciting breakthroughs in the nanoelectronics and microelectronics fields, the underlying physical mechanisms that link recent and expected advancements, and in exchanging views on future trends and directions, the market pulls and the necessary policy and infrastructure changes. The broader impacts will be in publishing Proceedings that will included best paper presented at the WOFE-09, peer-reviewed and edited with a detailed editorial Introduction and in promoting involving graduate students and younger scientists. In the past, some of the previous WOFE Proceedings were listed as Best Sellers by Word Scientific, Inc.
