2—3 September 1974 6th Conference ofSolid State Devices, Tokyo, Japan. The 6th Conference on Solid State Devices (1974 CSSD), sponsored by the Japan Society of Applied Physics, will be held in Tokyo, on September 2—3, 1974. The purpose of the Conference is to bring together a number of scientists and engineers actively engaged in the forefront of solid state devices. The Conference will cover the entire field of Solid State Devices basic physical phenomena, device physics and improvements of device characteristics and material technologies. -
Information: 1974 Conference on Solid State Devices, The Japan Society ofApplied Physics, Kikal-Shinko Building, 3-5-8 Siba-koen, Minato-ku, Tokyo 105, Japan.
The Conference is sponsored by the Electronic Materials Committee of ALME. The general subject will be: ‘Preparation and Properties of Electronic Materials’. Among the specific topics to be emphasized according to preliminaiy plans, are silicon materials, optoelectronic materials, and materials for microwave applications. The dealing for submitting 200—300 word abstracts of contributed papers is May 1, 1974. Papers presented be considered for publication in the Journal of will Electronic Materials.

Burmeister, Jr., Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, 1501 Page Mill Road, Palo Alto, CA 94304, U.S.A. 16—19 September 1974 6th International Symposium of the IMEKO Subcommittee ‘Photon-Detectors’, Siofok, Hungary.
3—13 September 1974 Low-dimensional Co-operative Phenomena and the Possibility ofHigh-temperature Superconductivity. A NATO Advanced Study Institute on this topic will be held at the ‘Seeof-Hotel’, Starnberg, Oberayern, GFR,September 3—13, 1974. Lecture courses will cover the physics and chemistry of organic and inorganic solids with low-dimensional intramolecular electronic interactions, e.g. ‘TCI4Q’ compounds and linear chain transition metal complexes. This includes a discussion of the magnetic, electrical and optical properties of these compounds and of the spectroscopic methods which have been used to identify low-dimensional co-operative phenomena.
The Symposium will deal with the following main topics: (1) External photoeffect and its applications. (2) Reception of picture information, storing receivers. (3) Semiconductor photon-detector, p—i—n and hetero structures. (4) Thermionic receivers. (5) Multiphonon effects. (6) Measurementswith photop-detectors.
