International Conference on Defects in Semiconductors (ICDS ) is a long running series of scientific meetings which focuses on research into point and extended defects in semiconductors . It developed as a spin off from the International Conference on the Physics of Semiconductors , remaining a satellite meeting from the first conference on Radiation Effects in
Semiconductors in Gatlinburg in 1959 (now known as ICDS 1) until becoming a separate meeting for ICDS 16.[ 1] The ICDS covers both basic and applied research topics, with special emphasis on applications of results to semiconducting materials and semiconductors-based device functionality. Traditionally, the ICDS has been held every 2 years in various cities around the world with frequent associated proceedings.[ 2]
The most recent ICDS (the 32nd) was at Rehoboth Beach , Delaware , September 10-15th, 2023.[ 3] ICDS 32 included the inaugural award of the Haller Prize,[ 4] named after Eugene E. Haller who was a major figure in the semiconductor community and an inspiring mentor for students.[ 5]
The next ICDS (33) will be at the Fudan University , Shanghai between September 15-19th, 2025, and will include a tutorial day on the 14th.
Corbett Prize
The Corbett Prize is awarded at the meetings to a young scientist for an outstanding contribution given at the ICDS. The prize is named in memory of James W. Corbett , one of the pioneers in the field of defects in semiconductors, who was known for helping and encouraging young researchers.[ 6] The prize has been awarded at every ICDS since 1995.
