MRS-T Launches New Journal, Holds Annual Meeting The Materials Research Society-Taiwan (MRS-T) was founded by a group of scientists dedicated to the advancement and promotion of materials science and technology in Taiwan. To this end, MRS-T publishes technical information about current advances in materials science and technology as well as research and development papers in an MRS-T sponsored journal
(ITRI). Prior to that, he was the general director of Materials Research Laboratories/ ITRI. Under his leadership, MRL expanded substantially both in facilities and in research results, accelerating the development of materials science in Taiwan and bringing recognition to MRS-T. After serving as MRS-T president, he joined the board of directors of MRS-T. His endeavors (Chinese Journal of Materials Science) which is on behalf of materials science have made published quarterly in Chinese. MRS-T him an honorary member of the Materials has recently elected to sponsor an internaResearch Society of Japan. tional journal on materials science under
Li-Chung Lee was elected as the new president of MRS-T. Lee received his BS degree from National Taiwan University, and his PhD from Cornell University. After graduation, Lee worked with Corning Glass for two years and IBM for six years before joining MRL/ITRI. He is now the general director of MRL/LTRI. MRS-T now has more than 1,800 members; about 1,000 are professors and researchers, while the others are students and business people.
the title Materials Physics and Chemistry,
published in English by Elsevier. The journal is slated to greet the public this summer. Each year since its establishment, MRS-T has sponsored an annual spring meeting. This year's meeting was held at National Taiwan University on April 24-26. There were 800 attendees and 400 papers (including oral presentations and posters). The three-day symposium covered all aspects of materials including semiconductors (Si and III-V compounds), superconductors, metals, composites, ceramics, magnetic materials, electronic materials, and optoelectronic materials. Most topics were related to metal materials. The most popular topics were superconductors and diamond film materials. The highlight of the annual meeting was the presentation of the C.H. Lu Award, established in 1980 in honor of C.H. Lu for his outstanding contribution in the promotion of materials science and technology in Taiwan. Recipients must have an outstanding scientific record, and their work must significantly impact materials research. The recipient of this year's C.H. Lu Award, Professor Chen-Hsien Hwang, has not only achieved advances in bright annealing research, but also in research on automated control for furnace atmospheres and in energy savings for controlled furnace atmospheres. MRS-T has grown substantially over these years, especially under the guidance of its former presidents Otto C.C. Lin and P.T. Wu. Lin is currently the president of Industrial Technology Research Institute
