DESCRIPTION:IEEE ANITS Electron Devices Society Student Branch Chapter (SBC
 03871H) has been approved by IEEE on Feb 14th 2023 and the chapter was ina
 ugurated on 12th April 2023 by the Chief Guest Dr. D. Nirmal\, Vice-Chair\
 , IEEE EDS Region 10(Asia &amp; Pacific)\, Prof. B. Jagadeesh\, HOD\, ECE\, AN
 ITS\, Dr. P. Murugapandiyan\, Advisor\, IEEE EDS Chapter\, ANITS\, Dr. Ush
 a Bala\, IEEE Student branch counsellor\, ANITS.\n\nThe basic objective of
  opening this branch under ANITS has been to further open different Societ
 y Chapters in various departments of the ANITS thereby involving all Bache
 lor\, Master and Doctoral students and faculty in IEEE activities and awar
 eness through conduction of Technical Seminars\, Workshops\, Conferences\,
  and other technical &amp; cultural activities leading to promotion of IEEE an
 d advancement of technology in right perspective. At present there are mor
 e than 35 IEEE Student Members and more than 12 Professional members under
  the Electronics and Communication Engineering branch\, ANITS.\n\nInaugura
 l Session (11:00AM – 11:30AM)\n\nThe inaugural ceremony commenced with t
 he lightning of the lamp (Virtually) by the dignitaries- Chief Guest Dr. D
 . Nirmal\, Vice-Chair\, IEEE EDS Region 10(Asia &amp; Pacific)\, Prof. B. Jaga
 deesh\, HOD\, ECE\, ANITS\, Dr. P. Murugapandiyan\, Advisor\, IEEE EDS Cha
 pter\, ANITS\, Dr. Usha Bala\, IEEE Student branch counsellor\, ANITS\, wh
 o graced the occasion.\n\nThe function began with a welcome speech by Prof
 . B. Jagadeesh\, HOD\, ECE\, ANITS. He welcomed – Chief guest Dr. D. Nir
 mal\, all the IEEE student members\, and IEEE professional members. He sai
 d that we have opened IEEE EDS chapter under the ECE branch and discussed 
 the benefits of IEEE Membership and facilities of Electron Device Society.
  He thanked Dr. D. Nirmal on behalf of ANITS for accepting the invitation 
 for the Chief guest of Inaugural Program and a Distinguished speaker. He e
 xpressed his special thanks to management of ANITS for extending financial
  support in organizing various activities. Lastly\, he thanked to Dr. Usha
  Bala and Dr. P. Murugapandiyan for their cooperation and support from pla
 nning to execution of the activities under the student branch.\n\nDr. P. M
 urugapandiyan\, Advisor\, IEEE EDS Chapter\, ANITS\, briefly introduced th
 e chief guest and gave complete information about IEEE student branch acti
 vity plan. He also motivated the students towards IEEE membership and prov
 ided the guidance towards how to take the IEEE membership. He said that ED
 S has many things for its members-- scientific publisher\, technical confe
 rence sponsor\, networking resource-- but at its core EDS is a community o
 f learning. From undergraduate students to PhD candidates and world-renown
 ed researchers\, EDS provides device engineers from across the spectrum en
 gaging and enriching educational opportunities. He further said\, EDS chap
 ter will conduct technical Poster presentation\, technical seminars\, proj
 ect exhibition\, National/International workshops\, and ethics competition
 s and many more. He told about student fellowships that each year at least
  three PhD and Masters Fellowships are awarded with prizes ranging from $5
 K (PhD) and $2K (Masters) per awardee. Lastly\, he expressed his best wish
 es for success of the technical seminar on “Trending Power Semiconductor
  Devices”.\n\nChief guest Dr. D. Nirmal\, congratulated to Prof. B. Jaga
 deesh &amp; his team for their successful attempt to establish an IEEE EDS Stu
 dent Branch chapter at the ANITS and wished them the best for the further 
 events. He told about some hot topics for research in electronics i.e. ele
 ctronics in biomedical\, green electronics\, optical circuits and mobile c
 ommunication. He encouraged the participants to avail utmost benefit from 
 the technical seminar and explore themselves in the respective research ar
 eas.\n\nChief guest Dr. D. Nirmal delivered the inaugural address. He said
  that the IEEE Electron Devices Society (EDS) is one of the technical soci
 eties &amp; councils that you can join as an IEEE member. He said that the IEE
 E Electron Devices Society was initially formed as the Institute of Radio 
 Engineers (IRE) Electron Tubes and Solid-State Devices Committee in 1951\,
  and quickly became a professional group: in March 1952 it was called the 
 IRE Professional Group on Electron Devices. After IRE&#39;s merger with AIEE i
 n 1963\, the group became the IEEE Professional Technical Group on Electro
 n Devices\, which merged with the Solid-State Devices Committee in 1963 an
 d with the New Energy Sources Committee in 1964\, becoming the IEEE Electr
 on Devices Group. In 1976 the group changed its name to the IEEE Electron 
 Devices Society. He said that EDS now has about 11\,000 members and chapte
 rs worldwide\, sponsors many technical periodicals\, provides support for 
 technical meetings\, and has its own business office. He also briefed abou
 t EDS mission fund. In his speech he talked about the “William Shockley
 ” who was an American physicist and inventor. Shockley was the manager o
 f a research group at Bell Labs that included John Bardeen and Walter Brat
 tain. The three scientists invented the point-contact transistor in 1947 a
 nd were jointly awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physics. Lastly\, he wishe
 d Electron Device Society chapter of ANITS the very best in all its endeav
 ors.\n\nTechnical seminar on “Trending Power Semiconductor Devices” (1
 1.30 AM to 12.30 PM)\n\nProf. D. Nirmal started the session on Trending Po
 wer semiconductor Device in which he discussed about various power semicon
 ductor devices for present and future power electronics applications. He a
 lso discussed that the First Junction Transistor was invented by W.B. Shoc
 kley in 1951. He gave an insight about some major milestones of semiconduc
 tor devices and he also explained the Evolution of VLSI. He also explained
  that the designers of modern integrated circuitry have continuously attem
 pted to provide more computational speed\, with less dissipated electrical
  power\, with less circuit board area\, while maintaining a low failure ra
 te\, and an aggressive cost. He discussed the Comparison of Semiconductor 
 Properties. He gave some glimpse on Integrated Circuit (IC) types of IC i.
 e.\, Monolithic IC and Hybrid IC.\n\nHe told some of the important feature
 s of GaN-High electron mobility transistors for future RF and power switch
 ing applications. He talked about the Various Engineered Device Structures
  i.e. Lateral Channel Engineered Structures\, Work-Function Engineered Str
 uctures and Gate- Oxide Engineered Structures. He also talked about how su
 bstrate engineering impacts the GaN-HEMTs performance. He concluded diamon
 d substrate is the best choice for GaN HEMTs to achieve better performance
  and good thermal dissipation. He concluded the session saying that InAlN/
 GaN HEMTs are providing better RF performance than conventional AlGaN/GaN 
 HEMTs.\n\nDr. P. Murugapandiyan Dr. B. Jagadeesh\n\nAdvisor\, IEEE EDS Cha
 pter\, ANITS. Professor &amp; Head\, ECE\, ANITS.\n\nAgenda: \n- To familiariz
 e IEEE Electron Device Society features and functions.\n- To familiarize t
 rending power semiconductor devices for present and future high power swit
 ching applications.\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/361384
