About DRC 2025

For eight decades, the Device Research Conference (DRC) has brought together leading scientists, researchers and students to share their latest discoveries in device science, technology and modeling. Notably, many of the first public disclosures of key device technologies were made at the DRC. This year marks the 83rd anniversary of the DRC—the longest-running device research meeting in the world. The high-caliber technical sessions are highlighted by plenary talks and invited talks by international research pioneers and leaders behind modern electronic technology.

The 2025 Conference will feature:

  • An informative, timely short course in rapidly developing fields
  • Oral and poster presentations on electronic/photonic device experiments and simulations
  • Plenary and invited presentations given by worldwide leaders
  • Evening rump sessions
  • Strong student participation and Student Paper Awards
  • Focus sessions on devices for neuromorphic computing

DRC will be held in coordination with the Electronic Materials Conference (EMC), which will occur the same week, from June 25-27. This recognizes the strong interaction between device and electronic materials research and provides fruitful exchanges of information between attendees of both Conferences.
