The goal of UFFC-S Ferroelectrics community is to promote the fundamental understanding and technology of ferroelectrics, to serve sustainable development of society in a broader range. The interaction and technical exchanges between our sister communities, including Ultrasonics and Frequency Control, will be strengthened through our conferences, workshops, tutorials, ferroelectric school, publications and newsletters, UFFC-S professional networking and mentoring program, so that we can bring together the engineers, scientists and students with different backgrounds and create forums to support horizontal collaborations in the UFFC-S related fields.
We focus our annual community meeting International Symposium on Applications of Ferroelectrics, Ferroelectric School and IEEE Transactions on UFFC (T-UFFC), to reach out and support all those who want to contribute to and benefit from our community in the coming years.
International Symposium on Applications of Ferroelectrics (ISAF)
ISAF aims to bring together leaders from academia, national laboratories and industrial research and development sectors. The conference will cover the most recent advancements in the science and technology of ferroelectrics, electroceramics, thin films, dielectric materials and their applications.
