The Institute of Electronic Materials and Devices works on advancements in future Si-based nanoelectronics. Our research focuses on new, primarily crystalline materials and material combinations (epitaxial heterostructures) and innovative device concepts on silicon. We demonstrate the potential of these developments by the creation of prototypes. Collaborating with capable partners, we leverage our semiconductor expertise to produce highly efficient solar cells.
Apart from our research endeavors, the MBE institute actively contributes to educating the electrical engineers and nanotechnologists of tomorrow. We offer an extensive range of lectures and provide opportunities for students to engage in meaningful work to further their knowledge and skills.
