SPIN2030 Microelectronics Tour: Saxony's Minister of Science Sebastian Gemkow at TU Dresden
Saxony's Minister of Science Sebastian Gemkow takes a look at microelectronics research at the NaMLab at TU Dresden.
Intelligent systems will rule the digital world of the future. And microelectronics are the foundation. In Dresden, Europe’s largest and most important microelectronics manufacturing location, we are researching the technological cornerstones and developing innovative solutions for pressing issues in cooperation with industry, and TUD is right in the thick of it.

Saxony's Minister of Science, Sebastian Gemkow, hopes that his microelectronics tour, organized as part of the SPIN2030 campaign, will once again underline how diversified the Free State has become in the field of microelectronics research. Research is carried out at a world-class level in all relevant areas such as design, materials, systems and technologies. At TU Dresden, he paid a short visit to the Nanoelectronic Materials Laboratory, NaMLab gGmbH for short, a subsidiary of TUD. This is where industry-oriented fundamental research for future microelectronic components with a focus on the integration of new materials for higher energy efficiency is being conducted. Prof. Thomas Mikolajick, holder of the Chair of Nanoelectronics at TU Dresden and Scientific Director at NaMLab gGmbH, Prof. Karlheinz Bock, Dean of the Faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Prof. Ronald Tetzlaff, Chief Officer Technology Transfer and Internationalization at TUD, gave the minister and media representatives a tour of NamLab with its clean room and research laboratories.
