Recently, the China Press Conference for ISSCC 2026, known as the "Chip Olympics", was held at Purple Mountain Laboratories in Nanjing. The conference presented the paper acceptance statistics and latest research trends of ISSCC 2026.This year’s ISSCC received a total of 1,025 submitted papers worldwide, among which only 257 were accepted. Each accepted paper represents state-of-the-art research progress in the chip industry. Southeast University had six papers accepted, ranking third among mainland Chinese universities. Four of these six papers were contributed by the School of Information Science and Engineering.
The statistics cover first-author papers with the first affiliated institution from Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong and Macao, demonstrating a continuous upward trend in accepted paper volumes, with institutions covering all technical tracks and an increasing number of primary affiliations.The four accepted research achievements are detailed as follows:
Paper titled A 214-to-242GHz Miniaturized Co-Packaged PA-Antenna Array with 29dBm Lens-less EIRP in a 0.13μm SiGe Process Team led by Professors Hong Wei and Chen Jixin; first author: PhD student Meng Qianqi
Paper titled A 24-to-27.5GHz Self-Adaptive Load-Modulated Balanced Amplifier for Integrated Communication, Sensing, and Power Transfer Scenarios Team led by Professors Hong Wei and Yu Chao; co-first authors: PhD student Yu Luqi and Associate Professor Chen Peng
Paper titled A 26/28/37/39GHz Reconfigurable Fully Connected MIMO Receiver Front-End with On-Chip Diplexer Achieving 52-to-70dB Blocker Rejection Team led by Professors You Xiaohu and Li Lianming; co-first authors: PhD students Jiang Xuhao and Chen Qin
Paper titled A 140GHz Full-Duplex CMOS Transceiver with Metasurface-Integrated Self-Interference-Cancelling Antenna Supporting 16Gb/s 16-QAM Dual-Mode Bidirectional Communication Team led by Professor Hu Sanming; first author: Postdoctoral researcher Yang Jiawei
