Guidelines for Oral and Poster presentations

All presentations require in‑person attendance at the conference. Registration is mandatory and allows presentation of up to two papers (or three with an additional fee).

Oral Presentations

Oral presentations in regular sessions will have a total duration of 15 minutes, including questions (up to 12 minutes for the presentation and 3 minutes for Q&A). Presenters may use their own template and submit their slides in PPT or PDF format. The preferred slide aspect ratio is 4:3 (16:9 is accepted but may result in narrow format). All speakers are required to upload their presentation files prior to the conference.

Poster Presentations

Posters must be prepared in A0 size (118.9 × 84.1 cm) and displayed in portrait orientation, with text and graphics arranged vertically. Materials for mounting posters will be provided on site.

Full paper submission

Full paper submission how now closed!

The full paper should follow the IEEE template below and is limited to 4 pages.

Following acceptance, signing and submitting the IEEE Copyright Form will be also required. VISA letters will be provided to authors with accepted full papers that have registered with the conference – see details in the VISA information page.

Call for abstracts

Abstracts should be no more than 1 page and follow the template below.  All abstracts will undergo a double-blind peer review process, with the accepted abstracts invited to submit a full paper on 1st December 2025. Accepted manuscripts will be presented in the conference as oral presentations or posters, they will be published in the conference proceedings and made available online in IEEE explore.

Conference topics

The theme of 6th ICD will be “Next-gen sustainable dielectrics”, with a renewed focus on the increasing requirements brought by the electrification, decarbonisation and sustainability efforts globally. The core topics of the conference include:

  • Conduction, polarization, space charge and related phenomena
  • Ageing, degradation and failure, e.g. environmental stresses, corona, partial discharge, treeing and breakdown
  • Theories, methods and models, e.g. electrohydrodynamics, charge transport in solids, composites
  • Insulation systems for power electronic devices and systems
  • Transportation electrification
  • Diagnostics and experiments
  • Novel materials including but not limited to:
    – Composite insulation systems
    – Nanodielectrics
    – Electro-active polymers
    – Multifunctional materials
    – Eco-friendly dielectrics and recycling
    – Biodielectrics
