The 8 International Conference on Electronic Materials IUMRS-ICEM2002 June 10-14, 2002 Xi’an, China

Sponsored and Organized by

Chinese Materials Research Society (C-MRS)

http://www.c-mrs.org.cn/icem2002/

Co-Sponsors: Ministry of Science and Technology of China National Natural Science Foundation of China China Association for Science and Technology Chinese Academy of Sciences Chinese Academy of Engineering Governments of Shaanxi Province and Xi’an City China Electronic Materials Association

Introduction This is the Eighth IUMRS International Conference on Electronic Materials. The IUMRS General Assembly meeting held in May, 2000 in Strasbourg has decided to hold this Conference in Xi’an, China in 2002. It is to share the research achievements and ideals in the field of electronic materials science and engineering. C-MRS will follow the footprints of the previous ones as already organized by E-MRS, MRS-Taiwan, MRS, MRS-Korea, to make it another success. The 8th IUMRS International Conference on Electronic Materials (IUMRS-ICEM 2002) will be held on June 10 to 14, 2002 in Xi’an, China. Since it is going to be the first IUMRS-ICEM in the new century, it is our intention to design it in a rather initiative way and to make it a forum for the scientists, engineers and students in the field of electronic materials all over the world, and promote the research and development of electronic materials in the world. Xi’an is a famous historical city located in central China. It was the national capital of 13 dynasties including Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang. It was also the starting point of the world famous “Silk Road”, and is listed as one of the four “Ancient Cultural Capitals in the world”. It is known as the “Natural History Museum” in which “The 8th Wonder in the World”-Qin Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses have been guarding the tomb of the First Qin Emperor for over 2000 years. One-day excursion to visit this and other famous sites is included in the conference program. In addition, optional post-conference tours are scheduled, which offer a good opportunity for participants to take part in technical visits and fantastic sightseeing in Xi’an , Baoji, Guilin and Dunhuang, in order to get a better understanding of the national culture and recent developments in China.

Convention Site The convention site is Xi’an Conference Center(XICC). XICC is located to the south of the famous Big Pagoda in the “Qu Jiang Tourism and Holiday Development District”, in the south part of the city. Occupying 200mu (approx 27 acres), it is 50 minutes by car from the Xi’an International Airport and 15 minutes from the Xi’an Railway Station.

Language English is the official spoken and written language of the conference
