Dear colleagues,
The SID Chapters of Belarus Russia and Ukraine encourage the submission of papers on all aspects of research, engineering, application and utilization of displays.

Paper submission are welcome for any of the general Symposium topics listed below. Because of the great importance of display manufacturing, the Symposium is inte-rested in all aspects including processes, equipment, materials for the manufacture of LCDs, CRTs, FEDs, TFELs and OLEDs, PDPs, and microdisplays.

The following topics are offered for discussions:

• Active - and passive - matrix LCDs

• Novel LC-materials and electro optical effects

• Light emissive displays (CRT, PDP, TFEL, OLED, FED e.t.c.)

• Microdisplays

• Processes, equipment and materials for display manufacturing

• Information boards and projection displays

• Human factors, display ergonomics and standards.
