Advanced Electromaterials: New Challenges

Over the last couple of decades, many new functional materials have been developed and rapidly attracted the attention of both academia and industries, primarily due to the huge potential impact they might have on human civilization. The needs of humans have always been a prerequisite for any new invention or development. As a result, materials engineers have been forced to develop new materials or improve existing ones. The International Conference on Advanced Electromaterials (ICAE) was first organized in 2011 to bring together, from all over the world, new important findings in materials, processes, and device or system design techniques in one place. ICAE provides an active forum among prestigious scholars, scientists, engineers, and young graduate students. Conference attendees gather important information and grasp global research trends on a wide variety of topics in electromaterials. There is no doubt that “advanced electromaterials” will continuously play a key role in future electronics industries as a new growth engine. The research and development of core materials will also become a very important issue in modern information technology industries. Following the success of the first five conferences, the 6th International Conference on Advanced Electromaterials (ICAE 2021) was held as a hybrid conference in Jeju, Korea, November 9–12, 2021. It was a huge success, with more than 1242 papers and 1766 attendees from 30 countries. ICAE 2021 was made up of 19 different symposia, where each symposiumwas designed to introduce themost up-to-date trends in the selected topic (see Table 1). ICAE is very focused on the technical discussions and communications between researchers in the field of materials. The objective of hosting ICAE is to develop various symposium themes and scopes and determine the developments in the material industries. Various materials are used in the device and application fields, depending on the performance required. The development of technology plays an important role in the development of materials. The development of materials requires much time and investment. However, material technology is important without considering other ideas. We would like to thank materials researchers, and we appreciate the chance to publish the research results as a Special Issue. The studies published here were presented at ICAE 2021 and represent the important materials performances that were introduced in the 19 symposia. Finally, ICAE will continuously develop new ideas on materials and provide an offline forum for active debates and exchange of new ideas. We expect that ICAE 2023 will also be beneficial to all attendees. We hope for the continued success of the researchers in the global materials communities. Among the presentations at the conference, 15 papers were selected through a peer-review process. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to all the conference committee members and participants, and the referees who rigorously reviewed the submitted papers. Table 1.
