Welcome
After 11 successful meetings since the inauguration in Toulouse, France, in 1983, the International Conference on Conduction and Breakdown in Solid Dielectrics (ICSD) has opened the door to liquid and gaseous dielectrics to give birth to the International Conference on Dielectrics (ICD) in Montpellier in 2016.
The ICD is an interdisciplinary forum that provides a unique opportunity for researchers from industry, academia and research centres to come together to review their research activities. It covers researches in the field of dielectric materials and dielectric phenomena, and on the behaviour and properties of the electrical insulation in devices, under operational stresses. Topics of power devices as well as all systems involving insulations and dielectrics are covered.
The 5th edition of ICD, fully sponsored by IEEE Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation Society, will take place in Toulouse, France, from Sunday 30th June 2024 until Thursday 4th July 2024, just 20 years after the 2004 ICSD Edition. Toulouse is a major European City in the field of Aeronautics and Space, with Airbus headquarters. It can be easily reached with 26 Airline companies and 69 international destinations in 2023.
We warmly invite you to save the date, to attend and to contribute to the 5th ICD. Tutorial sessions will be held on the first day of the conference. Papers are invited in all areas of solid, liquid and gas dielectrics.
