The 4th IEEE International NanoElectronics Conference (INEC) will be held at Chang Gung University in Tao-Yuan, Taiwan from June 21st to 24th, 2011. The conference is sponsored by the IEEE Electron Devices Society, the Ministry of Education, the National Science Council, Electronics Devices and Materials Association (EDMA), and National Nano Device Lab. (NDL), Taiwan, R.O.C.. Chang Gung University currently consists of the College of Medicine, College of Engineering, and College of Management. In taking advantage of Formosa Plastics Group''s abundant manufacturing and medical service resources, Chang Gung University aims to be a first-rate internationally renowned university that prepares high standard professional talents in the fields of medical science, high technology, and knowledge management. The conference venue is located at Taoyuan city which received international attention because of the Shihmen Reservoir, the largest reservoir in the Far East, and many visitors visit the reservoir. Over 20 million travelers arrive and depart from Taoyuan International Airport every year, making Taoyuan County the gateway to Taiwan. The multiple cultures of the different ethnic groups in the county, beautiful natural landscape, and its reputation as the kingdom of flowers and plants qualify Taoyuan as a 100% scenic spot. Welcome to participate INEC2011 in Taoyuan, Taiwan.

  In past few years extensive research on nanomaterials has shown a lot of interests and promises for novel applications in electronics, photonics, and biology in near future. To realize the particular applications in our daily life, it is necessary to search the connections between nanomaterials and nanodevices. This effort will require a multi-disciplinary approach combining research in suitable materials investigation, processing, modeling, characterization, devices, and system for proper application. Commercialization of nanotechnology is also effective way to encourage future research. The aim of this conference is to identify the paths between fundamental research and potential electronic, photonic, and biological applications. The INEC2011 will provide a unique forum for international academics, industries, researchers and students working in the areas of nanofabrication, nanoelectronics, nanophotonics, nanomedicine, and nanophysics to discuss the new developments, concepts and practices, and to identify future research needs so that nano-researcher can be brought closer to its immense potential for mankind.

  The INEC2011 will feature plenary and invited talks by well recognized scientists in nanofabrication, nanoelectronics, nanophotonics, nanomedicine, and nanophysics. The papers of all paid/registered papers will be included in the IEEE Xplore database and Engineering Index (EI). The full contributed papers will be peer reviewed and published in a special issue.
