EIPBN

The EIPBN Conference is recognized as the foremost international meeting dedicated to lithographic science and technology and its application to micro and nanofabrication techniques. The conference brings together engineers and scientists from industries and universities from all over the world to discuss recent progress and future trends.

We are pleased to feature the following paper on the history of the EIPBN conference:

History of the "Three Beams" Conference, the Birth of the Information Age and the Era of Lithography Wars

Mark L. Schattenburg
Space Nanotechnology Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology


Another item of historical interest is Richard Feynman's 1959 lecture

Meeting Format

The conference opens on Tuesday afternoon with a special commercial session which features vendors of materials and equipment relevant to this conference. The plenary session is on Wednesday morning. The rest of the conference has two parallel sessions. The length of presentation is 30 minutes for invited papers and 20 minutes for contributed papers, discussion time included. A special feature of the technical program is the poster session that includes invited and contributed papers. There is only one poster session, but posters will be displayed for informal viewing throughout the entire conference. No distinction is made between the importance of poster and oral presentations.

Technical Scope

Abstracts representing high quality original research are invited in the following areas:

DUV, immersion, EUV and X-ray lithography

Student Support


Limited funds are available to support student travel. The Conference Chair must receive a request for support from the student's advisor by May 1. Decisions about student support will be returned by May 15. Students receiving support must submit a manuscript, and preference will be given to students who are both first author and presenter. (At EIPBN there is no distinction between oral and poster presentations.)
