Abstract Submission
Late News Paper Submission
To make the conference updated, we call for late news abstracts. You are encouraged to submit your newest results for hot discussions at the conference.
Notification date for acceptance/non-acceptance: April 17th, 2019.
Abstract Submission
Authors submitting papers to the Compound Semiconductor Week (CSW) 2019 are required to submit a two-page abstract.
Extended deadline: January 21, 2019
Please upload your abstract via the submission page in the above link.
A complete submission comprises the following three documents:
- A two-page abstract (Upload a PDF file)
- A 200-word short summary (Fill in the form on the abstract submission page)
- An IEEE Copyright and Consent Form (Electronic copyright transfer on the IEEE web site after PDF file submission).
The official Conference Proceedings will be published and archived in IEEE Xplore. In the submission page, you are requested to choose between the two-page abstract OR the 200-word short summary for archival purposes. However, all accepted two-page abstracts will be distributed to the attendee of CSW 2019 via the USB memory stick.
Abstract Template and Example
The two-page abstract for CSW 2019 should be prepared using the following MS Word templates, which contain detailed abstract preparation and formatting instructions. The abstract file must be converted to PDF file using IEEE PDF eXpress before uploading a final manuscript.
IEEE PDF eXpress
Abstracts that do not follow these formatting rules will be automatically rejected. We strongly recommend using IEEE PDF eXpress for preparing the PDF abstract files since PDF files generated by other applications are often rejected by IEEE Xplore due to incompatibility with the IEEE format.
For first-time users of IEEE PDF eXpress:
- Select the “New Users – Click Here” link.
- Enter the Conference ID, your email address, and a password. The Conference ID for CSW2019 is 45927X.
- Submit the paper title and upload your Word abstract file.
- Your abstract will be converted to a PDF file and sent to you shortly via email.
- Download your PDF abstract and submit it via this “Abstract Submission” page.
An online confirmation will be displayed and an email confirmation will be sent verifying successful account setup. Existing users of PDF eXpress will also need to go through the above steps, but should use the same password as for previous conferences. Please verify that your contact information is valid.
CSW2019 Best Student Paper Award
The CSW Best Student Paper Award was established for students who present their work as speakers or poster presenters. The awards are open only to students who are officially registered at a university by the abstract submission deadline. Awardees will be selected by members of the program committee based on abstract content and presentation quality. Please apply upon online abstract submission.
Student award applicants are strongly encouraged to attend the award ceremony in the closing session.
CSW2019 Special Issue
We are planning to publish a special conference issue. The detail of the special issue will be announced in the “Publication” page.
Please note that those who plan to submit a paper to the special issue should avoid duplicate publication with IEEE Xplore. In particular, if you choose to archive the two-page abstract in IEEE Xplore, please be reminded that you will not be able to use the same text or figures for the special issue paper and are requested to add new results.
