Call For Papers

The 29th edition of the International Interconnect Technology Conference (IITC) will be held June 1-4, 2026 in San Jose, California. Authors are encouraged to submit their original work describing innovative research and development in the critically important field of on-chip interconnects. The conference seeks papers on all aspects of BEOL/MOL interconnects and metallization, including design, unit process, integration and reliability.
The deadline for submission of abstracts is February 13, 2026.

IITC is sponsored by the IEEE Electron Devices Society as the premier conference for interconnect technology devoted to leading-edge research in the field of advanced metallization and 3D integration for ULSI IC applications. The conference seeks papers on all aspects of BEOL/MOL interconnects and metallization, including design, unit process, integration and reliability.
