EDS J.J. Ebers Award

This award was established in 1971 with the intention to foster progress in electron devices and to commemorate the life activities of Jewell James Ebers, whose distinguished contributions, particularly in the transistor art, shaped the understanding and technology of electron devices. It is presented annually to honor an individual(s) who has made either a single or a series of contributions of recognized scientific, economic, or social significance in the broad field of electron devices. The recipient(s) is awarded a certificate and check for US$5,000, presented at the International Electron Devices Meeting.

Please submit your on-line nomination form by 1 July, or if you prefer, you can print the nomination form and submit it to the EDS Executive Office. All endorsement letters should be sent to l.riello@ieee.org.
