About IEEE EDS Mini-Colloquium

Join us at the IEEE EDS Mini-Colloquium on FET100-Nanoelectronics Devices, an exceptional opportunity to learn from the stalwarts in various domains of semiconductor technologies, nanoelectronics devices, and emerging nanoelectronics. Whether you’re passionate about advanced nanoelectronics, or cutting-edge semiconductor technologies, this event offers inspiring talks, interactive sessions, and networking with pioneers who are shaping the future of various aspects of nanoelectronics, from devices to applications.

Students will have unique chances to engage directly with speakers, participate in one-on-one discussions, and explore options to discuss diverse career and research paths.

In 2025, we reached an important milestone: 100 years of the Field Effect Transistor (FET). The first concept of the FET was documented in a Canadian patent filed by Julius Lilienfeld on 22 October 1925. Over the past century, the development and innovations of the FET have been fundamental in enabling integrated circuits for computing, memory, communications, and countless other applications.

To commemorate this historic occasion, the IEEE Electron Devices Society (EDS) has launched a series of activities under the banner of “100 Years of the FET” (abbreviated as “FET100”) spanning 2025–2026.

This IEEE EDS Mini-Colloquium proudly celebrates the 100th anniversary of the FET, a key innovation that laid the foundation for integrated circuits and numerous applications in computing and communications.
