Publications
EDS publications and products are a great resource for scientists and engineers in the key technology areas of electron device engineering, an area EDS has been the leading publisher since 1954. The society publishes over a dozen flagship, industry-leading periodicals and journals, either wholly- or co-sponsored, that offer students, faculty, staff, scientists and engineers, access to interesting, reliable, and relevant technical content that will inspire their next milestone paper, invention or discovery. The EDS aspires to the continued development of new publications and products aimed to serve the electron device community, stay up-to-date on current trends, and advance their skills and professional development. This publication dynamism is designed to help engineers at all levels accelerate their fundamental understanding of emerging device, circuit and systems integration technologies and techniques. As such its products provide an excellent platform to showcase research results, whether it is from academia or industry, at the highest standard of quality possible for increased global visibility.

Tutorial and review papers on these subjects are also published and occasional special issues appear to present a collection of papers which treat particular areas in more depth and breadth.
IEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society
The IEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society is an open-access, fully electronic scientific journal publishing papers ranging from fundamental to applied research that are scientifically rigorous and relevant to electron devices. The J-EDS publishes original and significant contributions relating to the theory, modelling, design, performance, and reliability of electron and ion integrated circuit devices and interconnects, involving insulators, metals, organic materials, micro-plasmas, semiconductors, quantum-effect structures, vacuum devices, and emerging materials with applications in bioelectronics, biomedical electronics, computation, communications, displays, microelectromechanics, imaging, micro-actuators, nanodevices, optoelectronics, photovoltaics, power IC's, and micro-sensors. Tutorial and review papers on these subjects are also published and occasional special issues appear to present a collection of papers in particular areas.
IEEE Journal of Photovoltaics
The IEEE Journal of Photovoltaics (JPV) is a peer-reviewed archival publication reporting on original and significant research results in the field of photovoltaics (PV). The PV field is diverse, ranging from the science and engineering of PV materials and devices, to their application in cells, modules, photovoltaic generators, the design of systems of modules, and large-scale solar installations. Works describing enhancing PV reliability, and extending the system lifetime are welcome when PV is the focus. Manuscripts related to control and optimization of PV power-generation system performance are welcome where there is a direct relationship to the nature of the PV devices.
Tutorial and review papers on the above subjects are also published and occasionally special issues are produced to present a collection of papers which treat particular areas in more depth and breadth. Special issues may also be published directly related to topics of interest to the PV community, for example the best works presented at the IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference.
IEEE Transactions on Device and Materials Reliability
The IEEE Transactions on Device and Materials Reliability includes, but is not limited to Reliability of: Devices, Materials, Processes, Interfaces, Integrated Microsystems (including MEMS & Sensors), Transistors, Technology (CMOS, BiCMOS, etc.), Integrated Circuits (IC, SSI, MSI, LSI, ULSI, ELSI, etc.), Thin Film Transistor Applications. The measurement and understanding of the reliability of such entities at each phase, from the concept stage through research and development and into manufacturing scale-up, provides the overall database on the reliability of the devices, materials, processes, package and other necessities for the successful introduction of a product to market. This reliability database is the foundation for a quality product, which meets customer expectations. A product so developed has high reliability. High quality will be achieved because product weaknesses will have been found (root cause analysis) and designed out of the final product. This process of ever increasing reliability and quality will result in a superior product. In the end, reliability and quality are not one thing; but in a sense everything, which can be or has to be done to guarantee that the product successfully performs in the field under customer conditions. Our goal is to capture these advances. An additional objective is to focus cross fertilized communication in the state of the art of reliability of electronic materials and devices and provide fundamental understanding of basic phenomena that affect reliability. In addition, the publication is a forum for interdisciplinary studies on reliability. An overall goal is to provide leading edge/state of the art information, which is critically relevant to the creation of reliable products.
IEEE Transactions on Semiconductor Manufacturing
The IEEE Transactions on Semiconductor Manufacturing publishes the latest advances related to the manufacture of microelectronic and photonic components and integrated systems, including photovoltaic devices and micro-electro-mechanical systems. Its principal aim is to continually enhance the knowledge base and improve manufacturing practice across the entire supply chain from fabrication to delivery of these devices. Areas of interest include process integration, manufacturing equipment performance and modeling, yield analysis and enhancement, metrology, process control, material handling, factory systems and all areas of factory and supply chain management related to the semiconductor industry including materials synthesis, equipment manufacturing, and mask making. Papers submitted to this journal should have a clear relevance to manufacturing practice, as opposed to device design and device characterization.
Journal of Microelectromechanical Systems
The IEEE Journal of Microelectromechnical Systems include, but are not limited to: devices ranging in size from microns to millimeters, IC-compatible fabrication techniques, other fabrication techniques, measurement of micro phenomena, theoretical results, new materials and designs, micro actuators, micro robots, micro batteries, bearings, wear, reliability, electrical interconnections, micro telemanipulation, and standards appropriate to MEMS. Application examples and application oriented devices in fluidics, optics, bio-medical engineering, etc., are also of central interest.
IEEE Journal on Flexible Electronics
The IEEE Journal on Flexible Electronics (J-FLEX) publishes cutting edge research covering all aspects of sensors, transistors, related devices, circuits, systems on flexible, disposable, stretchable and degradable substrates. This includes various functional and sustainable materials, material-integrated sensing, interface subsystems, corresponding actuators, energy harvesting, energy storage devices, modelling, simulation, manufacturing, integration or packaging in soft and flexible substrates and all applications of flexible electronics. Topics such as 3D printed or heterogenous integration, use of sustainable materials and processes aligned with circular economy are also in the scope of this journal.
Journal of Lightwave Technology
The Journal of Lightwave Technology is comprised of original contributions, both regular papers and letters, covering work in all aspects of optical guided-wave science, technology, and engineering. Manuscripts are solicited which report original theoretical and/or experimental results which advance the technological base of guided-wave technology. Tutorial and review papers are by invitation only. Topics of interest include the following: fiber and cable technologies, active and passive guided-wave componentry (light sources, detectors, repeaters, switches, fiber sensors, etc.); integrated optics and optoelectronics; and systems, subsystems, new applications and unique field trials. System oriented manuscripts should be concerned with systems which perform a function not previously available, out-perform previously established systems, or represent enhancements in the state of the art in general.
