                    First Announcement and Call for Papers

Objective:

Provide a platform for exchanging information on various microstructure
technologies, materials, handling methods, and theoretical tools used to
produce high aspect ratio devices as well as on products and applications.

The program is organised in oral and poster sessions according to the key words
given below with the aim to avoid parallel sessions. Sessions will be opened by
invited talks and may comprise extended talks. Conference language is English.

Processes and Materials
    Primary structuring in thick layers
    Microelectroforming
    Micromolding
    Surface and interface properties and preparation
    Assembly, interconnection, packaging
    Theoretical aspects
Products and Applications
    Devices and systems
    Fields of applications

A visit to Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe (KfK) with tours to the main
microstructuring facilities is planned on Thursday, July 6.

Invited speakers:

Confirmed invited speakers include W. Ehrfeld, H. Guckel, A Heuberger, R.
Kassing, W. Menz, J. Mohr, L. Romankiew and R. Wechsung.
