Friday, 11 July 2025 15:20 |

The International Conference on Nitride Semiconductors ICNS-15 has just finished with a great success. ICNS-15 was held in Malmö in Sweden from July 6-11, 2025. The conference featured 881 scientific papers, 57 of which were presented by polish researchers. Our team - 21 people from the Institute of High Pressure Physics - presented 33 scientific papers.

We had a Plenary Speaker – prof. Michał Boćkowski, and three invited talks – Dr Anna Kafar, Prof. Paweł Kempisty and Prof. Henryk Turski. Our employees delivered also 7 contributed talks (oral presentations) and 22 poster presentations. Prof. Michał Boćkowski was a panelist in the Rump session "kV Nitride Power Devices: Challenges and Technologies”. We also served as moderators of the individual sessions.

The list of the all presentations by Institute's employees is available at the link.

Researchers from the Institute of High Pressure Physics were actively involved in the organization and had numerous scientific contributions. The ICSN-15 conference was chaired by Vanya Darakchieva, Lars Samuelson and Piotr Perlin. Prof. Tadek Suski was the Honorary Chair. Prof. Izabella Grzegory was among the Program Co-chairs, supporting Åsa Haglund, the Program Chair. Dr Anna Kafar was a panelist in “Women in Nitrides - diversity and inclusion” event.

Special congratulations to the young scientists on their Awards! Muhammed Aktas from the Optoelectronic Devices Laboratory NL15 received the award for the best poster presentation “Low-Temperature Characteristics of PolarizationDoped Nitride Emitters”. Congratulations!

The 8th International Symposium on Growth of III-Nitrides (ISGN-8) is a biennial international conference hosted on a rotating basis by different countries worldwide. This symposium focuses on the latest advancements and future directions in the growth of bulk crystals, thin films, and nanostructures of III-nitrides. Last edition of ISGN-7 was organized by our Institute in Warsaw, Poland.

This year ISGN-8 is organized in National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), Tainan, Taiwan on November 9-12, 2025. It comprises 10 parallel sessions and 1 special session. Prof. Michał Boćkowski, Director of Institute of High Pressure Physics PAS will have an invited talk in the Session S1. III-N Bulk Crystal Growth.

Abstract submission deadline is July 4, 2025.
