Technical Program
You are cordially invited to attend the 2025 IEEE Nuclear and Space Radiation Effects Conference to be held July 14-18, 2025 at the Renaissance Nashville Hotel, Nashville, Tennessee. The conference features a technical program consisting of eight to ten technical sessions of contributed papers describing the latest observations in radiation effects, a Short Course on radiation effects issues, a Radiation Effects Data Workshop, and an Industrial Exhibit. The technical program includes oral and poster sessions. Papers on nuclear and space radiation effects on electronic and photonic materials, devices, circuits, sensors, and systems, as well as semiconductor processing technology and design techniques for producing radiation-tolerant (hardened) devices and integrated circuits, will be presented at this meeting of engineers, scientists, and managers. International participation is strongly encouraged.
We are soliciting papers describing significant new findings in the following or related areas:
Basic Mechanisms of Radiation Effects in Electronic Materials and Devices
■ Single-Event Charge Collection Phenomena and Mechanisms
■ Ionizing Radiation Effects
■ Displacement Damage
■ Radiation Transport, Energy Deposition, and Dosimetry
