DURHAM, NC (JANUARY 6, 2025) – The Device Research Conference (DRC), the longest running device research meeting in the world, has announced a Call for Papers for DRC 2025, the conference’s 83^rd anniversary.

The 83^rd annual DRC will be held from June 22-25, 2025 at Duke University in Durham, NC. The DRC brings together leading scientists, researchers, and students from many disciplines in academia and industry to share their latest research and discoveries in device science, technology, and modeling, including many of the first disclosures of key device technologies.

DRC announces that the deadline for abstract submissions is February 15, 2025. To submit an abstract, download the 2025 Call for Papers.

The DRC 2025 technical program offers a rich and diverse agenda, featuring three plenaries, seven keynotes, and 40 invited speakers that cover a broad spectrum of device-related topics. The program will include oral and poster sessions showcasing advanced research in electronic and photonic devices, evening panel discussions, and a special Focus Session on Devices for Heterogeneous Integration. The plenary talks will be delivered by world-renowned leaders in device science and technology: Eli Yablonovitch, Nicky Lu, and Suman Datta. Other program highlights include a Short Course on Heterogeneous Integration, a Tutorial on modeling and simulations, and vibrant student participation, with Student Paper Awards recognizing exceptional contributions.

DRC 2025 is held in coordination with the Electronic Materials Conference (EMC), recognizing the strong interaction between device and electronic materials research, providing an opportunity for meaningful exchanges of information between attendees of both conferences.
