Dear. All ITS members and whom it may concern

Call for Papers

The Korean Scientific Committee for ICT 2007 is pleased to invite you for paper submission both for oral and poster presentation, and the topics are to be in regards with the categories as below:

We are planning to have conference abstracts printed in a scientific citation indexing journal, “Solid State Phenomena” (SSP). For the further development of ICT and to enhance the standing of the conference, we would appreciate the active participation of all participants.

Therefore, those wishing to be published by SSP must submit a 4- to 6-page full paper along with its publication and dispatch fees which should be paid separately from the conference registration fee.

In addition to publishing ICT 2007 presentations in a SCI journal, the scientific committee also plans to separately print a book of proceedings containing all the presentations from the conference. For those who aren’t interested in SSP publication, they can submit a 2-page informal paper for publication in the book of proceedings.

Informal and full papers alike must be submitted at the time of registration. The book of proceedings will be distributed during ICT 2007 while the SSP Journal will come out in September 2007.

We are looking forward to the continued active participation of Japan, the Americas, Europe, China, and Asia in presenting a wide variety of research findings as well as in creating a network of human resources in our field.

The venue for ICT 2007, Jeju, is known as the Hawaii of Asia. During our conference in June, the weather is expected to be clear, with the blue skies harmonizing with the azure ocean. We hope to see all of you in Jeju!

Submitting Papers

Categories for Contributed Program

When submitting a paper, you will be asked to select the one category from the list below that is nearest to your topic. The program committee will use the category you indicate to help them organize the abstracts into sessions, but may also regroup sessions around other themes that emerge from the submissions. Please feel free to submit a paper on a topic that may be somewhat outside of this list. The committee cannot anticipate all of the topics that might be received; indeed, part of the purpose of a conference is to go beyond the usual categories and boundaries. We welcome presentations on topics that do not fit squarely in one of the listed categories, as long as they relate to some quantitative aspect of thermoelectrics research.
